Carson Wentz is smart.
The media is trying to bait you, so don’t give them anything they can use against.
This was a very generic answer, but it keeps him looking like the good guy in the situation who isn’t worried about anything.
“It didn’t really concern me,” Wentz said. “My reaction was, kind of understood. I had a feeling there was a chance we’d want to draft somebody given the way our roster is laid out and wanting to get younger. There was no concern for me. I think the team showed their investment in me last year and I’ve nothing but confidence and faith in them and they have nothing but confidence and faith in me. So I think it’s all about strengthening that position and this group that we have.
“With Jalen, I’m excited to add him to the team,” Wentz said. “I know how important the quarterback position is, and how important the dynamic is for me and the other guys in that room. I’ve been blessed over the years to have some incredible not just quarterbacks, but incredible humans and friends in that quarterback room. We really endure a lot together and go through together. I’m excited.
As long as Wentz stays healthy and plays well he has nothing to worry about.
