Quarterback Carson Wentz has reached an agreement on a one-year contract worth $3 million, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. The deal includes $2.645 million in total guaranteed money and features additional incentives that provide financial upside for the veteran signal-caller.
Wentz enters this new agreement following a stint with the Los Angeles Rams, where he served as a backup late in the 2023 season. A former No. 2 overall pick and Pro Bowl selection, Wentz brings extensive starting experience to his new roster, having previously led the Philadelphia Eagles, Indianapolis Colts, and Washington Commanders.
The terms of the contract, specifically the $2.645 million guarantee, signal a firm commitment to Wentz as a primary backup or potential bridge starter for the upcoming campaign. Per Pelissero, the deal is structured to allow Wentz to earn more through performance-based escalators. This signing marks the latest chapter for the veteran as he continues his career as a reliable depth option in the league.
