Today Eagles head coach Doug Pederson announced what they and everyone else feared — their MVP candidate quarterback is now lost for the season.
Carson Wentz suffered a torn ACL running in a touchdown Sunday in a win over the Rams. His Eagles will now have to try to win the final three games as well as the playoffs without him.
Among those final three games is the Raiders who come to Philadelphia in week 16. The quarterback who will be taking Wentz’s place is Nick Foles who, if you’ll recall, had a career game against the Raiders in 2013 when he threw 7 touchdowns with no interceptions.
