He was originally signed by the team in 2014 and was a big factor both on the field and in a leadership role as Philadelphia won their first Super Bowl — despite going on IR in October 2017.

Every receive is different and has preferences, so building that chemistry is a big part of it.Wentz admitted that it’s different playing with a guy like DeSean Jackson who has so much speed and trying to anticipate where he’s going to be at the end of a throw. But, it’s exciting at the same time, and that’s why it takes a lot of communication.The quarterback was also asked later on about the communication he has with his other receivers too, like Alshon Jeffery and Nelson Agholor. Wentz noted that without those conversations that they have before and in-between throws would make the on-field reps a little less valuable. They also make the misses and mistakes worth it, because they are able to talk about why they happened and how they can adjust in the future.Wentz was also asked about rookie JJ Arcega-Whiteside and how he’s looked this offseason:Later on http://www.eagleslockerroom.com/authentic-fletcher-cox-jersey , he was asked about that quote and having “a lot of mouths to feed”, but Wentz said that isn’t so much something he has to think about during a game and that the coaches do a good job in game planning to move the ball around. He also mentioned that they have a lot of players who are team guys and not so worried about individual production so long as things are best for the team.On 12 personnel and offensive weaponsWentz was asked about how having so many skill players and utilizing 12 personnel will make things easier for him this season.On the new RBsThe quarterback was asked about what stood out to him so far about his two new running backs, Miles Sanders and Jordan Howard:Wentz was then asked if some of those unknowns at this time, make it even nicer to have Darren Sproles back — a guy who they know what he can do and what they’re getting. The QB emphasized what he said last week about being really excited that Sproles re-signed, not only for the abilities he brings to the field, but also to be that veteran leader in the locker room and to the running back group.On 3rd downsIt’s been brought up a couple of times about the team’s success on third downs in 2017 and how that took a dip last season Womens Jake Elliott Jersey , but Wentz — and Doug Pederson — mentioned on Monday that third down and redzone plays are something they all focus on in the offseason.Wentz said a lot of the differences come down to communication and availability of plays, but that’s all behind them, and moving into the 2019 season they have playmakers who can stretch the field in those 3rd-and-long situations, and the offensive line gives him plenty of time to make plays, so he’s excited for the potential this year.Other notablesWentz talked about the heart-warming moment with a young fan on Friday. The QB said moments like those are super humbling for him, especially coming after a long Derek Barnett Jersey , hot practice, and you’re tired but you get to see those kids who inspire him and remind him that it’s so much more than football.The QB also talked a bit about how his leadership role has grown organically over the years, and that just comes with having more experience and no longer being the young guy on the team.Wentz mentioned again that Nate Sudfeld looks great this offseason, and the two of them have been close since they became teammates.
