Doug Pederson, Carson Wentz open the 2022 NFL season as opponents

Still, here we are just five years later, and Pederson is the head coach for the Jacksonville Jaguars, and Wentz is the new QB for the Washington Commanders. The two, whose careers in Philly were indelibly linked since 2016, will now face each other to open their 2022 NFL seasons.

You had a first-time head coach and a quarterback that the organization traded a bajillion picks to move up and draft.
