After an injury to star quarterback Carson Wentz on Sunday, Philadelphia Eagles fans are left wondering what the future holds as the team looks to make a deep run into the playoffs.
Wentz was shaken up during Sunday’s win over the Los Angeles Rams, but initially tried to stay in the game.
Following a few more plays and touchdown pass, Wentz was taken to the locker room.
The signal-caller was immediately ruled out for the duration of the game with an injury to his left knee.
Judging by an update provided by FOX Sports’ Erin Andrews, there is plenty of reason for concern in the City of Brotherly Love.

If Carson Wentz does indeed have a torn ACL, he will have stayed in the game, played four more plays, and thrown a TD to Alshon Jeffery with an injured knee.

You can see the clear instability in Wentz’s knee while he attempted to remain on the field.
