Carson Wentz Trade Rumors: Bears Backed Out of Talks, Panthers Had No Interest

Adam Caplan of SiriusXM provided some insight Thursday regarding teams who were believed to be interested in quarterback Carson Wentz before the Philadelphia Eagles reportedly traded him to the Indianapolis Colts.

According to Caplan, the Chicago Bears backed out of trade talks involving Wentz recently, and the Carolina Panthers were never interested.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Thursday that Philly dealt Wentz to the Colts for a 2021 third-round pick and a conditional 2022 second-round pick that could become a first instead.

Wentz was the latest domino to fall in the trade market, and he will be reunited with Colts head coach Frank Reich in Indianapolis.
