Commanders preferred choice is Carson Wentz amid quarterback competition

Washington Commanders Introduce Carson Wentz is entering a critical season in the upcoming campaign. He had a near MVP-level season in 2016 and is now on his third team in as many years in 2022. It's safe to say that few people have taken a hit on their reputation quite like Carson Wentz. The 29-year old is now competing for the starting job in Washington. Despite early struggles for Wentz in Washington training camp, head coach Ron Rivera is not concerned about the quarterback situation: "It's a lot better than you give him credit for, just because of the way things happen in practice. Yeah, there's some inaccuracy. But it's nothing that we are overly concerned [about]." Ron Rivera on the overall practice and then on Carson Wentz and accuracy. As the season draws closer, Wentz will have more confidence under his belt and be in sync with his targets. But it seems clear to everyone that if he doesn't perform this year, his days as a starting quarterback will be behind him. It's very much put-up or shut-up time for the Commanders quarterback. We will see him on the field in two weeks' time. NFL Injuries: Find out about ? Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Thank You!
