Carson Wentz Fantasy Analysis

• Wentz cleared, will start Week 3
  Eagles QB Carson Wentz (knee) has been medically cleared and will start Sunday's game against the Colts, the team announced Monday. Philly has been extremely cautious bringing Wentz back from last December's torn ACL and LCL in his left knee. He's reportedly been throwing well in practice, but his mobility inside and out of the pocket remains a question. Wentz will be a risk/reward Week 3 fantasy play in a plus matchup. His return is excellent news for the rest of the Eagles' skill-position guys. QB Nick Foles totaled 451 yards with just 1 TD and 1 INT over the first 2 weeks. Full Story

• Wentz "on track" for Week 3
  ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Eagles QB Carson Wentz (knee) is "on track" to return for Week 3. We got a similar report from ESPN's Chris Mortensen earlier this week.

Assuming he starts, Wentz will be a risk/reward QB1 in a plus matchup against the Colts next weekend. And his return will be a big boost to Philly's skill-position guys. Full Story

• Confirmed: Foles starts Week 2
  Eagles HC Doug Pederson confirmed on Wednesday that QB Nick Foles will start this weekend's game against the Bucs. QB Carson Wentz (knee) reportedly has a shot to return for Week 3. Foles' preseason struggles continued in Week 1, when he completed just 19 of 34 passes for 117 yards, 0 TDs and 1 INT. He can't be trusted in fantasy lineups, despite a plus matchup against Tampa.

• "Optimism" Wentz returns for Week 3
  There's "optimism" Eagles QB Carson Wentz (knee) will be ready for Week 3 against the Colts, according to ESPN's Chris Mortensen. Wentz still hasn't been cleared for contact as far as we know, and we'll be watching his participation in practice this week. QB Nick Foles will get at least 1 more start against the Bucs this weekend. He'll be no more than a low-end QB2, despite that plus matchup. Full Story

• Wentz expected to miss "a few more weeks"
  Eagles QB Carson Wentz (knee) is expected to miss "a few more weeks," according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The team continues to be "overly cautious" with its starting QB, Rapoport says, adding that it's possible Wentz is out into October. Philly's bye isn't until Week 9, so he won't get any relief there. We'll continue to monitor his progress, but Wentz owners need to be making backup plans at least through Week 5. Full Story
