Carson Wentz's Inaccuracy Doesn't 'Overly' Concern Commanders, Says HC Ron Rivera
Washington Commanders head coach Ron Rivera defended Carson Wentz amid reports of inaccuracy in training camp:
"It’s a lot better than you give him credit for, just because of the way things happen in practice," Rivera said (h/t Myles Simmons of ProFootballTalk). "There’s a lot of little nuances that we see that we look at that we get to review. Yeah, there’s some inaccuracy. But it’s nothing that we are overly concerned [about]."
The question about Wentz's accuracy issues came after Nicki Jhabvala of the Washington Post detailed the problem after Saturday's practice:
