Carson Wentz will start Week 1 for Eagles if healthy

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz will start against the Cleveland Browns in Week 1 if he's recovered from his ribs injury according to Adam Caplan of ESPN.

What It Means:

Chase Daniel is penciled in as the team's Week 1 starter, but if Wentz is healthy, it sounds like the Eagles are ready to start the rookie in his first regular season NFL game. Wentz has been out since Week 1 of the preseason after taking a big hit, so despite barely playing in exhibition, the Eagles are prepared to throw the rookie right into the fire.

The Eagles offense ranked 23rd in Passing Adjusted Net Expected Points per play last season.
