Carson Wentz Named Rookie of the Week
One week, one award: Carson Wentz was named the NFL Rookie of the Week today for his opening effort against the Browns. Of all the awards Wentz could win this year – and hopefully there are more – this is the least surprising. Wentz put up PFF’s highest passing grade by a rookie QB in week 1 since Cam Newton. ESPN ranked his QBR as 16th in the league, but it was well above any other Week 1 rook. He’ll face his first test Monday night, but things could not be starting better for Wentz.
