Carson Wentz named NFC Offensive Player of the Week

The accolades continue to pour in for Philadelphia Eagles rookie quarterback Carson Wentz, who is coming off a stellar Week 3 outing against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Wentz just became the first Eagles rookie quarterback to earn NFC Offensive Player of the Week honors.

This past week saw Wentz complete 23-of-31 passes for 302 yards and two touchdowns in a 34-3 win over Pittsburgh. He’s now gone 102 pass attempts without throwing an interception on the season.

As a team, Philadelphia has benefited a great deal from Wentz’s early-season performance.

It heads into a Week 4 bye with a perfect 3-0 record and ranks second in the NFL in scoring at 30.7 points per game.
