Multiple star players on the Philadelphia Eagles have defended Carson Wentz on Twitter after the Philly Voice published a report in which team sources describe the quarterback as being “selfish,” “uncompromising” and “egotistical.”

Here is a portion of the report:

…But the true Wentz is more nuanced and complicated, with sources describing him as “selfish,” “uncompromising,” “egotistical,” one who plays “favorites” and doesn’t like to be “questioned,” one who needs to “practice what he preaches” and fails “to take accountability.”

Numerous sources confirmed Wentz was once verbally attacked by a highly respected teammate for not being “a team guy.”

“Carson Wentz’s biggest enemy is Carson Wentz,” one source said. “He’s had his ass kissed his whole life, and sometimes acts like he’s won 10 Super Bowls, when he hasn’t played in, let alone won, a playoff game yet. Everyone around him wants good things for him. He did more thinking on the field than he did playing (in 2018). You don’t have to be a brain surgeon or a football expert to see how differently this team plays and reacts with one guy as opposed to the other.”

Some of his teammates have spoken out:

Sal Paolantonio reached out to an Eagles’ team senior official to gauge the reaction to the story that some unnamed teammates view Carson Wentz as “selfish.” 

The official said the team felt the story was nonsense and the swift criticism of the story by senior players was proof of that.

“You are seeing what his teammates are saying about Carson. Great leader in the locker room and on the field. Carson is a good person, great character. Story has no legs, ” the senior team official said in a text. 

Not sure what this is all about other than someone trying to get Wentz out of Philly.
