Worried about how Carson Wentz's injury has been progressing? Don't.
The Eagles began their title defense today with the start of organized team activities (OTAs) and Wentz was on full display during practice. He looks good.
Carson Wentz is not fully cleared yet but he is doing all of drills with the quarterbacks so far in first OTA

Throughout the offseason, there has been a lot of positive news surrounding his return to the huddle. On March 27, head coach Doug Pederson provided this update:
"I don't need him in preseason," Pederson said at the NFL meetings. "I need him in Week 1. I'm very encouraged with where he's at. I'm not rushing him. He's working extremely hard. No timetable, make sure he's 100 percent. But knowing Carson, he's going to try to get out there sooner than later. Be smart with it, make good decisions."
Looks like a good start to having Wentz back for Week 1 if it's May 22 and he's moving like that.
