The last 24 hours have been rough for the Philadelphia Eagles. Even though the team just clinched the NFC East for the first time since 2013, it has still been a grim day in Philadelphia. Eagles head coach Doug Pederson held his weekly press conference at noon on Monday to update everybody on the status of Carson Wentz.
After being optimistic about the severity of the injury, Pederson announced that Wentz has torn his ACL. He will undergo surgery in a few days and will not return this season. The timetable for Wentz’s return is not set at the moment, but we know for a fact that the Eagles will not be rushing him back.
