Fantasy Impact:
Wentz was sent to the bench after struggling most of the season as the Eagles' starting quarterback. He led Philadelphia to a 3-8-1 record and owns a 16:15 TD:INT ratio over 12 games. The 27-year-old QB leads the NFL in turnovers (19) and sacks taken (50) this season. Wentz has a four-year, $128 million contract that kicks in 2021. The No. 2 pick of the 2016 NFL Draft has seen his play decline all season and his future with the Eagles is in question after his latest demotion. Stay tuned.
