The Philadelphia Eagles made a franchise-altering decision this past week as they locked in their franchise quarterback to a more significant deal. Eagles’ quarterback Carson Wentz was set to play out the final season of his rookie deal in 2019. For 2020, Wentz also had a fifth-year option, which the Eagles picked up a couple of months ago. In addition to this year and the next, Wentz also got himself a four-year extension, which keeps him in Philly for a total of six seasons.
Philly fans were supportive of the decision to lock in Wentz long-term for the most part.
