Eagles Rumors: Criticizing Carson Wentz Was a 'Death Sentence' with GM Roseman

Those in the Philadelphia Eagles organization reportedly have to keep many of their opinions to themselves as a result of general manager Howie Roseman and his close relationship with owner Jeffrey Lurie.

Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer reported team personnel wouldn't criticize quarterback Carson Wentz last season out of "fear of being shunned by Roseman."

"At almost no point in personnel meetings the last couple years did anyone say anything negative about Carson," a source explained. "Even when he would actually look [bad] in practice, almost nobody was willing to say anything because they knew it would be their death sentence.
