Doug Pederson says Carson Wentz is questionable for Eagles vs. Rams game despite the fact his recovery could take three months

Coming off a terrible loss to the Cowboys on Sunday, Eagles head coach Doug Pederson only added to the misery on Wednesday, announcing that Carson Wentz would miss practice with back soreness. About 24 hours later, we learned that the quarterback actually has a fracture in his back, and Pederson confirmed the injury and noted he is questionable to play on Sunday.

Pederson spoke to reporters Friday morning before practice, and was on the receiving end of a lot of questions — while offering few answers — about the team’s medical staff and trainers and why Wentz’s injury wasn’t identified and dealt with sooner.
