Eagles QB Carson Wentz declines exit interview with media amid rumors he wants to be traded

Carson Wentz has been embroiled in trade rumors for weeks and on Monday after the Eagles completed their exit interviews, Philadelphia’s franchise quarterback declined to speak to the media.

Wentz has been the subject of reports over the past two NFL Sundays and this week both Adam Schefter and Chris Mortensen reported that the Eagles star would like to move on.

On Monday, Doug Pederson addressed his relationship with the Eagles franchise quarterback, telling reporters that it was “good” and professional.

Wentz was a healthy scratch on Sunday, while rookie quarterback Jalen Hurts made his fourth-straight start to end the season.

Multiple teams are expected to have an interest in trading for Wentz, with the Colts as the front-runner, thanks to Frank Reich, who was Wentz’s offensive coordinator in Philadelphia.
