Carson Wentz Signs with Los Angeles Rams as Backup Quarterback

Former No. 2 pick steps into new role amid Matthew Stafford's injury, ready to play if called upon.

Carson Wentz, former No. 2 pick, has signed with the Los Angeles Rams as a backup quarterback.
Wentz was released by the Washington Commanders in February and remained unsigned until Week 10.
He has been preparing intensively, working closely with Rams' offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur and quarterbacks coach Zac Robinson.
Matthew Stafford, the Rams' starting quarterback, is currently injured, making Wentz's role potentially critical.
Wentz acknowledges the humbling nature of the NFL and is focused on being ready to play, regardless of his role.
