Wentz will be injured his entire career.
The cost for Wentz probably would have been the highest for a player ever too crazy to think about, still could do it if Philly extended Foles first. I don't think Foles wants to start for so long to make it worthwhile though. Like wasn't he thinking of retiring before going back to the Eagles? Like if they rolled with Foles and then he retired at like 34 or whatever Wentz would still be 30 and probably one of the best QBs in the league which would be a hard sell unless Foles continued to have success before hanging it up.
