The Eagles last week that Carson Wentz was day-to-day with a lower body injury.
“Carson Wentz (lower body) is day to day,” McManus tweeted. “Believed to be a minor soft tissue injury. Team being cautious.”
On Tuesday, Eagles head coach Doug Pederson was asked about the health of his quarterback and he made it clear that Wentz wouldn’t be practicing at this time, which would be a normal schedule before the fourth preseason game.
He said the injury to Wentz is “nothing major” and the former No. 2 overall pick should be ready to go when the 2020 season kicks off.
