It’s been an up-and-down 10 practices in training camp thus far for new Washington Commanders quarterback Carson Wentz. The former Eagle and Colt has often missed high on his targets in practice. But, he’s also flashed his big-play ability almost every day in practice.
On Saturday, the Commanders held practice No. 10 at FedEx Field in front of many of the team’s fans. And for Wentz, it was almost a repeat of some of his earlier performances throughout camp.
Wentz missed some easy throws in the earlier portions of practice. However, he showed pinpoint accuracy on a touchdown throw to Curtis Samuel in the end zone.
He wasn’t done.
Wentz also connected on a big play down the field, flashing his amazing arm strength.
Then, he found Terry McLaurin for another score, showing touch and accuracy.
After Saturday’s practice, head coach Ron River spoke to the media and was asked about Wentz
“I simply see the progression; again keep working timing and he’s understanding the concepts,” Rivera said. “It’s a different offense he’s played in and he’s getting used to different players, different characteristics in terms of types of wide receivers he’s throwing too. He’s developing within the program.”
While has been shaky throughout training camp, it’s far from a concern right now. He’s shown enough, while learning a new offense, to give the Commanders a reason to be excited. Does that mean this works out for Wentz in Washington? Of course not, but no one should be writing him off less than two into training camp.
