Carson Wentz Is Starting on Sunday
Today marks the 281st day since Carson Wentz last played in an NFL game, but the much anticipated wait for his return will end this Sunday afternoon at Lincoln Financial Field when the Eagles host the Colts.
Oh, how I’ve missed you, my sweet, sweet prince. Let us exult.
Carson Wentz has been medically cleared and will start Sunday, as Head Coach Doug Pederson will announce during his press conference.#FlyEaglesFly pic.twitter.com/tT0wz5aevN

I love how the team broke the news with a tweet featuring that hot little video clip just ahead of Doug Pederson’s presser to get us all lubed up. It is both decidedly sexual and violent, so much so that I’ve watched it loop no less than 26 times. With each passing replay, my elation grows.
Wentz, too, confirmed his return via Twitter:

While the Eagles still have several issues on the offensive side of the ball, the return of the would-have-been 2017 NFL MVP should provide a huge boost to an offense that has managed only 322 yards and 19.5 points per game over the first two weeks. Now, if only he had another weapon…
BREAKING: The Eagles are now even-money favorites to acquire Josh Gordon.
