Carson Wentz is not the first franchise quarterback to hear complaints from his teammates

The fallout over Joe Santoliquito’s Carson Wentz story in The Philly Voice continues to rage. After quoting anonymous sources calling the Eagles’ franchise quarterback “selfish,” “uncompromising,” and as “playing favorites,” the story has been widely criticized as teammates have come to Wentz’ defense since the story was first published.

How much of this story is true? It’s hard to say without knowing who the sources are, but there are certainly some aspects to the story in which there are likely shades of truth. But the veracity of the story has been litigated and re-litigated in the past few days over and over and it’s likely nothing new can be added here to the reams of reaction already piled up in the corner like a stack of old ‘45s.
