Things are not going well for Carson Wentz lately. The former Washington Commanders quarterback has yet to find a team to play for in the 2023 NFL season. On top of that, he is facing intense backlash on social media for a controversial post he recently made.

Football has been very rough with Carson Wentz. The quarterback has faced multiple injuries throughout his entire career, which have significantly limited his playing time and prevented him from achieving the level of involvement he had hoped for.

The former 2nd-overall pick wants to return to the NFL after being released this offseason. Wentz knows that it will be difficult to be a starter again, and it seems like his place in the league would only be as a backup.
