Carson James Wentz (born December 30, 1992) is an American football quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs of the National Football League (NFL). Wentz played college football at North Dakota State University, where he won two consecutive NCAA FCS national championships as the starter. He was selected second overall by the Philadelphia Eagles in the 2016 NFL draft, making him the highest drafted FCS player.
Wentz's greatest success with the Eagles was in 2017 when he led them to an 11–2 record. Although he suffered a season-ending injury, Wentz helped put the Eagles in position to obtain their conference's top seed, which culminated with the franchise's first Super Bowl title in Super Bowl LII. He also earned Pro Bowl and second-team All-Pro honors. Wentz helped bring Philadelphia back to the playoffs during his next two seasons, but further injuries limited his participation. After losing his starting position due to a production decline, he spent his next two seasons with the Indianapolis Colts and Washington Commanders, losing his starting role at the end of his Commander tenure. He later joined the Los Angeles Rams midway through the 2023 season as a backup before signing with the Chiefs ahead of the 2024 season.
