“It sounds crazy when you say so,” Wentz said via Athletic. “It has definitely given me a different perspective. Going from being a starter, acting, cutting, being a backup behind some future Hall of Fame -Quarterbacks and seeing things done (recently) at a really high level. It has given me a perspective. And also just the perspective of not taking this for granted.”
Wentz’s start with Rams and Chiefs came in week 18 when the two teams rested their starters in front of the playoffs. The last time Wentz started meaningful games with the commanders in 2022.
