Carson Wentz's velocity is the best indicator of the Eagles QB's remarkable progress

As anyone familiar with the mechanics of throwing knows, the legs provide the base and power to deliver a ball with velocity.

While the Eagles have stopped short of declaring Carson Wentz ahead of pace in his recovery from knee injury – despite his surprising involvement in spring practices – the best indicator that the quarterback is on track to meet his goal of being ready for the season opener may come from his right arm.

Wentz’s throws are seemingly moving at a clip as fast – and possibly faster — as they were pre-injury.
