'His presence is enough': Philadelphia Eagles' Carson Wentz wows, leads teammates
FTA: " Linebacker Corey Nelson crouched to begin stretching before his first true practice as a member of the Philadelphia Eagles on Tuesday, glanced over his shoulder and felt astonished.
Nelson spotted Carson Wentz a few feet away from him. And though the Eagles' star quarterback wore a brace over his left knee, a bit more than five months removed from surgery to repair a torn ACL and LCL, Wentz bent down to touch his toes. He was preparing for practice like everyone else.
"In my head, I was just like, 'Wow,'" Nelson said. "It's an amazing recovery."

Just me comments;
FTA: "Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles is still the first-string quarterback in 11-on-11 drills, but wide receiver Mack Hollins said Wentz's personality -- easy going yet determined -- helps him balance his role as captain with his duties to support Foles.
"He hasn't been like, 'I'm the bossman.' That's not how Carson leads," Hollins said. "Carson leads by the way he behaves and how he plays and how he prepares. And that hasn't changed at all."
I cannot help but think that when the Eagle came to Fargo to see Wentz, they also came to see the Bison front office and team culture. A lot of 'Bison' appears in the new Eagle culture, thinking and strategy. could be me just transferring, but sure seems like a lot of coincidences. who knows.

Carson is now an uncle and I became a great uncle. Zach and Andie Wentz had an 8 pound 12 ounce baby girl named Sutton Joy. All are doing well.
Wentz looks superhuman in rehab
FTA: "Carson Wentz tore his ACL and LCL 5 months ago but you won’t be able to tell at OTAs. Will Carson be ready for Week 1?"

Eagles News: Former NFL doctor says Carson Wentz looks “great” and is “on track”
As we analyze some of the limited video, he does move well but he never fully extends his knee, does not fully transfer weight or step into throws. He also occasionally crow hops before throws, as shown in multiple videos here. He demonstrates considerable arm strength by making the throws without help from his lower body. That works fine in drills, but he will need more for game situations. Of course, running and cutting is the other part of his game.

5 great photos of... Carson Wentz
We get access to a lot of photos here at BGN. Unfortunately, we don’t get to use them all. Some don’t work as lead photos, some get uploaded well after the event, and some just get lost in the shuffle. So I thought from now until training camp, we should show them off, even if we have used them before. Who else to start if off with but our baby boy, Carson Wentz.

I know this isn't Wentz news, but I figured this is about as Anti-Wentz news as it could possibly get:
