Winning Super Bowl 52 was an amazing feat for the Philadelphia Eagles, especially when you consider Philadelphia did it without their starting quarterback Carson Wentz, who went down in Week 14 with a torn ACL and LCL in his left knee.
Fortunately for the Eagles, they had Nick Foles, who stepped in and led the Eagles through the playoffs and ultimately to a victory in Super Bowl 52.
Foles will back next season, but if Wentz is healthy, Foles probably goes back to the bench.
With Foles in the fold, the Eagles really do not have to rush Wentz back, and to former NFL player and current ESPN analyst, Damien Woody, that’s a good thing.
Here is what Woody had to say on ESPN’s First Take today:

I think Wentz is going work very hard to get back for Week 1, but just like Woody said, there is no need to rush it.
