While the Philadelphia Eagles are fortunate enough to have their future set with Carson Wentz under center, their situation at backup heading into the 2020 offseason was a bit of a different story.
Around this time last year, there was plenty of excitement surrounding the Eagles being in great shape at backup for years to come due to Nate Sudfeld showing signs of being a reliable option, which could very well still turn out to be the case.
Unfortunately, an injury suffered by Sudfeld in preseason last August forced Philadelphia to convince Josh McCown to come out of retirement to serve as the team’s backup, as the veteran would hang on to the role throughout the 2019 season.
