Carson Wentz’s health has been a question over the last couple of season, but his talent hasn’t. That’s why the Philadelphia Eagles announced they had signed Wentz to a four-year, $128 million extension that will keep him as the team’s quarterback through the 2024 season. The deal comes with $107 million guaranteed and a $66 million signing bonus. His total contract is now worth $154 million, but can be worth as much as $170 million with incentives.
Grateful for this opportunity and excited for the future! 🙌🏻 #FlyEaglesFly #AO1 pic.twitter.com/1Cxn12lciD

Was Gurley hurt all of 2018?
According to Los Angeles Rams radio analyst and former NFL running back Maurice Jones-Drew, Todd Gurley was dealing with his knee injury all through the entire 2018 season. According to Jones-Drew, Gurley injured his knee in the team’s season opening game against the Oakland Raiders.
This would explain a lot.
If the Pats hid a SEASON-LONG injury to a critical player, people would be saying the Pats should be fined a trillion dollars.Rams radio analyst says Todd Gurley was playing through injury all season – ProFootballTalk https://t.co/g8P0ELcdM7
