Carson Wentz teams: What football teams did the now-released QB play for?

NFL quarterback Carson Wentz was released by the Washington Commanders a day ago, and the former Pro Bowler is looking for a new place to call home.

As such, the Commanders decided to cut their losses and move on from the once stellar shot caller.

Wentz is currently on the market, in case your team is looking for an experienced QB that has seen better days. He has been a part of the rosters of three NFL teams, and you can keep reading to find out what groups the Notre Dame University legend played for in his seven-year NFL career.

During his NFL career, Carson Wentz played for the Philadelphia Eagles, the Indianapolis Colts, and the Washington Commanders.

Carson Wentz's entry into the NFL?

The former league MVP frontrunner actually started his NFL career with the Philadelphia Eagles. The team drafted him as the second overall pick of a super-stacked 2016 NFL Draft.

He was drafted straight out of Notre Dame University, where he played for four seasons and broke almost every quarterback record you can imagine.

Wentz was selected as the FCS' highest-drafted player as a reward for his stellar time at the University. He was a member of the Eagles for five years, leading the team to numerous playoff appearances and becoming one of the league's premier QBs.

Wentz also earned a Pro Bowl nod as a member of the Eagles in 2017, a second-team All-Pro nod in the same 2017 season, and a Super Bowl LII win. He left the Eagles before the 2021 NFL season to sign a contract with the Indianapolis Colts. By the time Wentz was gone, the Eagles had already drafted a competent replacement to take over at center in Jalen Hurts.

The next stop for Wentz was the Indianapolis Colts in 2021. It was a team that had developed a reputation for signing veteran quarterbacks and compelling them to fit into their offense, rather than building their offense around a veteran QB.

Carson Wentz's time with the Colts wasn't wrong, but he finished the season with a losing record, and both parties knew they needed to get what they signed up for. At the end of the season, Wentz was let go and tasked with finding yet another franchise to call home.

Step in the Washington Commanders in 2022, another team that felt the need to take a flier on the former Pro Bowler rather than select a quarterback in the NFL Draft.

They signed Carson Wentz before the 2022 NFL season, expecting to get the Wentz of the good old Philadelphia Eagles' days. Sadly, that wasn't the case, as he never did get used to the team's intricacies.

Wentz lost his job as the starting quarterback numerous times and was released at the end of the 2022 NFL season.
