Carson Wentz Update: Former NFL doctor says Eagles quarterback is “still multiple weeks away” from returning

It’s been widely reported that the Philadelphia Eagles will start Nick Foles — not Carson Wentz — at quarterback when the reigning Super Bowl champions open the 2018 NFL season against the Atlanta Falcons this week. Wentz, as we know, is still making his way back from the ACL/LCL injury he suffered last December.

So, if Wentz won’t be ready to play Week 1, when WILL he be back?

Former NFL doctor David J. Chao (@ProFootballDoc) offered some thoughts on the matter in a recent post for The San Diego Union-Tribune.
