Carson Wentz‘s final season in Philadelphia was a disaster, but his new coach thinks he’s looking great as he begins Organized Team Activities in Indianapolis.

Colts head coach Frank Reich, who was the Eagles’ offensive coordinator in Wentz’s first two seasons, said today that Wentz’s physical traits have jumped out.

“When he’s out there, you can feel his presence,” Reich said, via Zak Keefer of TheAthletic.com.

Reich referred to Wentz as “a dominant physical specimen for the position.”

Wentz looked like he was well on his way to becoming one of the NFL’s elite quarterbacks during his two years playing for Reich. It didn’t work out in the end in Philadelphia, but Reich sounds confident that Wentz is going to be back on track in 2021.

  1. His problem wasn’t physical last year. No doubt he can make the necessary throws for a pro QB. Will he make the correct throws at the correct time? That’s what he needs to re-learn.

  2. It’s extremely apparent that Frank is working double duty to resurrect Carson’s confidence.
    Good luck…

    I was thinking the exact same thing. Expect to see plenty of these type of articles coming out of Indy. They’re going to be bandaging up wentz’ ego and self esteem all throughout the season.

  4. 2017 didn’t happen by accident. He’s got the tools. Just needs the right coach to get it out of him. A better supporting cast won’t hurt either.
