The Eagles-Colts Carson Wentz trade is now complete: What did the Eagles get in return?

by Jimmy Kempski

During the 2021 offseason following a disastrous 4-13 season, Carson Wentz no longer wanted to play football for the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles obliged, sending him to the Indianapolis Colts for a couple of draft picks. Those draft picks turned into more draft picks, and when the Eagles made a selection with the 5th overall pick of the 2024 draft, the Wentz trade became complete. Here we'll show what the Birds ultimately got in return for Wentz.
