For heaven's sake!
Carson Wentz, the Eagles' newly-drafted, non-starting quarterback, may be jinxed before he throws his first NFL pass: The 23-year-old is featured on the cover of this month's Sports Illustrated. (In the Philadelphia market, that is. Thanks to the publication's regional marketing strategy, readers in other cities may be getting different covers potentially jinxing other newly-drafted franchise saviors.)
Wentz, picked up by the Eagles as the No. 2 overall pick in last Thursday’s NFL Draft, joins a short list of former Eagles quarterbacks to grace the cover of the venerable sports magazine.
