The Washington Commanders have a new name and a new quarterback in 2022. A rival of the Eagles for close to 100 years, the animosity between the two franchises reaches a new peak when the 1-1 Commanders host the Eagles.
What makes Sunday’s contest so unique? It’s the first game that Carson Wentz, once the apparent franchise quarterback in Philadelphia, will play against his former team.
Wentz and a star-studded Commanders offense host the quarterback who replaced the former MVP frontrunner for the Eagles. Much will be made on what happened that caused the downfall of Carson Wentz in Philly, and the front office’s impact on the move, but the Eagles and Wentz have turned the page to their current team.
