Carson Wentz Traded To The Washington Commanders

On Wednesday, after only being a part of the Philadelphia Eagles for one year, Quarterback Carson Wentz was traded to the Indianapolis Colts. Then, the Colts traded him to the Washington Commanders.

Reports say that the Commanders are giving up two third-round draft picks to the Colts and will pay the rest of his salary. This will be quite a bit for someone who many believe made many questionable throwing decisions last season.

The move comes the day following the Commanders tries at acquiring Russell Wilson prior to being avoided by the Seattle Seahawks. This may be due to rumors that the Commanders really are attempting to get a veteran quarterback.

However, they were able to get the Colts to agree to their deal. So, Wentz will be going to a former division competitor in 2022.

This will translate to the Commanders paying $28 million to get Wentz. If he stays with the team after next season, they will have to pay a $20 million salary and a $21 million salary until the 2024 season is over.
