Donovan McNabb congratulates Carson Wentz for breaking Eagles single season passing record

Carson Wentz is now the proven face of the Eagles franchise after leading the team to four straight wins and a spot in the 2019 NFL playoffs.

Along the way Wentz was steady, showed great leadership and broke a few of the franchises passing records along the way. On Sunday, Wentz broke Donovan McNabb’s record for passing yards in a season, while also becoming the first Eagles quarterback to pass for over 4,000 yards.

Shortly after Wentz and the Eagles punched their ticket to the playoffs, McNabb congratulated Carson on a job well done.

McNabb had 3,916 yards during the 2008 season and had previously had five of the top-10 passing seasons in Eagles history before Wentz’s arrival.
