The Facts: The Eagles have a fully operational Wentz at training camp. HC Doug Pederson said Thursday that the Eagles are "not gonna hold back" on the starting QB during camp, per NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. The Eagles will monitor how much Wentz throws, like all quarterbacks, but there will be no restrictions moving forward.
Diehards Line:Wentz's injury history makes his full-go status to open training camp noteworthy. The Eagles' franchise quarterback was knocked out for the end of the past two campaigns, first with an ACL tear and last year with a back injury, watching Nick Foles lead the Eagles on playoff runs. But Wentz participated in OTAs during the spring and by all accounts looked fantastic. Now he appears to be fully over the back ailment that bothered him as recently as April. With Foles now in Jacksonville, the veteran insurance is gone. And with a new, massive contract in hand, Wentz will be able to spend training camp focusing on building his rapport with his receiving corps. How much Pederson uses him during the preseason remains to be seen.
