The distant voice behind the camera, the angle, the blurred-out room. It feels more like a Dateline prostitution sting than the interview of an NFL prospect. All it needs is a deep-voiced narrator to come in and you could very easily convince me that Carson Wentz was a blissfully unaware happy-go-lucky pimp with a deep understanding of blitz protection packages.
The interview opens with some play-calling questions, then they run through some tape with Wentz, all while looking like a bumbling congressional committee:
The combine is not just a bunch of dudes running and lifting. The real work is done in these sad, dark rooms, and it looks exhaustively awkward.
