September 17Sep 17 Carson Wentz is preparing to start at QB for the Vikings on Sunday. He will make NFL history in an interesting way:Daily NorsemanCarson Wentz Set to Make NFL History on SundayA very interesting distinction, in any caseA start for Wentz on Sunday at U.S. Bank Stadium will make him the first quarterback in league history to start a game for six different teams in six consecutive seasons, according to Bill Barnwell of ESPN.Wentz played his first five NFL seasons in Philadelphia, and last started for them in 2020 when he started 12 games. After that, he started all 17 games for Indianapolis in 2021 and seven games for the Washington Commanders in 2022.

September 18Sep 18 Author Carson Wentz will be first player to start for six teams in six consecutive seasonsVikings quarterback Carson Wentz will make NFL history when he steps on the field against the Bengals this Sunday.Wentz will be the first player to start for six different teams over six consecutive NFL seasons. He was with the Eagles, Colts, Commanders, Rams, and Chiefs before joining the Vikings shortly before the start of the 2025 season."It sounds crazy when you say that,” Wentz said, via Alec Lewis of TheAthletic.com. "It’s definitely given me a different perspective. Going from being a starter, traded, cut, being a backup behind some future Hall of Fame quarterbacks and seeing things done at a really high level. That’s given me some perspective. And also just the perspective of not taking this for granted.”Sunday’s game will be significantly different from Wentz’s last two starts. He started Week 18 games for the Rams and Chiefs the last two seasons because they were resting starters ahead of the playoffs, and Wentz welcomes the chance to play in a game with more stakes."It’s exciting for me,” Wentz said. "I’m not going to lie. It’s been a couple of years since I played in a game like this with real consequences.”It’s not clear how long the Vikings might be without J.J. McCarthy and a good showing for Wentz this week would make it easier to wait for the 2024 first-round pick’s ankle to get back to 100 percent.NBC SportsCarson Wentz will be first player to start for six teams...Vikings quarterback Carson Wentz will make NFL history when he steps on the field against the Bengals this Sunday.

Not sure b. gets you there since there's no report that he was placed on waivers. Anyone else know if he was waived or outright released?

He is the best playmaker the secondary has had. He's also been a mercurial personality, and possibly more of a lockeroom/ team issue. The reasons the Texans released him, are partial to the reasons why the Eagles traded him. "We already know," from history, that the Eagles overwhelmingly are correct when they move on from a player.

"We already know," from history, that the Eagles overwhelmingly are correct when they move on from a player.It’s kind of funny. I was just re-thinking (overthinking?)."Well, this would move DeJean to CB2 full time and you’d have a defense without a hole. That’s almost impossible.”No one seemed to have anything good to say about him after he left, though. That’s gotta be a problem.
September 24Sep 24 CJ averaged 2.9 m between 2022 and 2024.He was due to make way more than that.Instead the money is going towards young superstars when they get extensions. (not this year's cap hit, the additional new money)They might not have kept Dallas Goedert at full price. Do they hate him too?
September 24Sep 24 NFL teams tolerate criminals, tantrums, guys that keep getting fined, etc. For that many teams to dump CJGJ after such little time, he must be a real problem.CJGJ has always been a player where you have to weigh if the bad and baggage is worth whatever good he provides. I imagine Fangio didn't like him giving up so many big plays. He's inconsistent. Yes, he has confidence and trash talks (so do others). He did bring some "swagger" back but that same offseason they got Baun and drafted Q and DeJean. Nolan Smith brings a lot of confidence as well, and Carter brings enough of the attitude (too much, to get penalties). CJGJ would make a basic tackle and celebrate like it was the play of the game, and then give up a touchdown. He would get an INT and then give up a huge play.Meanwhile Q, DeJean, Blankenship are consistent, and Mukuba is already out there making plays and will only get better as a rookie. CJGJ would just be a headache and distraction, and complain he's not starting or getting enough snaps.There are multiple reports of him having issues with Houston's coaches, being disgruntled, and a rumor that there was an off the field incident that the Eagles were trying to keep quiet about. Also CJ said Howie told him if he can't find someone to trade for him, he'd be cut.There's a reason teams keep getting rid of him.
September 24Sep 24 I would absolutely bring him back. Nobody wants this dude and the only place he seems to work out is in Philly. If he was outright released and not waived they could probably get him on the cheap. He could be a real chess piece for the defense and play some slot which would enable Coop to play a little bit more outside as well in the slot.

See below. Seems like a silly rule.
