Carson Wentz Blasts Jalen Hurts Ahead of Eagles Showdown — ‘He Took My Job, That’s the Truth
Philadelphia, PA – October 17 2025
The story between Carson Wentz and Jalen Hurts isn’t just another quarterback rivalry — it’s unfinished business. Five years after losing his job to Hurts in Philadelphia, Wentz finally gets his chance for payback this Sunday. And he’s not hiding how he feels.
“He took my job, that’s the truth,” Wentz said earlier this week. “This week when I face him on the field, I’ll get my revenge — not with words but with every play, every effort. Just wait and see.”
It’s a quote that sent shockwaves through NFL circles, especially among Eagles fans who still remember the turbulent end to Wentz’s tenure in Philadelphia. Once viewed as the franchise’s savior, Wentz went from

By 2019, Wentz had bounced back, throwing for 4,039 yards and 27 touchdowns, becoming the first Eagles QB to ever surpass 4,000 passing yards in a season. But by 2020, his play collapsed —

Inside league circles, some call this the ultimate emotional test. For Wentz, it’s more than football — it’s closure. Hurts has become the face of the Eagles, a franchise cornerstone. Wentz, meanwhile, is fighting to rewrite his legacy as more than just “the guy Hurts replaced.”
Sunday’s game won’t just be about touchdowns or stats. It’s about pride, unfinished stories, and the chance to flip the script.

Packers Re-Sign Rookie Cornerback ‘Standout’ with All-AAC Honors Just 8 Hours After Cutting Him
Green Bay, WI – In one of the more surprising roster moves of cutdown weekend, the Green Bay Packers wasted no time reversing course on a decision that had stunned both insiders and fans across the league.
The team initially trimmed its roster earlier this week, creating several unexpected storylines as promising young players were let go to balance depth. But just hours later, the Packers brought one of those players right back.
Packers insiders described the turnaround as “fast, calculated, and telling.” The organization clearly did not want to risk losing a developmental prospect who had shown flashes of potential but was squeezed out by roster math on Tuesday.
That player is rookie cornerback Micah Robinson, a seventh-round pick who earned second-team All-AAC honors last season at Tulane. Robinson’s reinstatement to the practice squad signals how highly the front office still values his long-term potential.
Robinson was a standout in college, recording two interceptions and 34 tackles in his lone season at Tulane after transferring from Furman. His physicality and versatility in coverage made him one of the most consistent defensive backs in the AAC.
In Green Bay’s preseason, Robinson continued to flash that same confidence, drawing praise from coaches for his footwork and willingness to press receivers at the line. Analysts pointed out he played with a maturity beyond a late-round rookie.
The Packers’ cornerback group is still crowded with Keisean Nixon, Kamal Hadden, Nate Hobbs, Carrington Valentine, and Javon Bullard entrenched. Yet, by re-signing Robinson, Green Bay shows an appetite to keep developing young secondary talent behind their established starters.
For fans, the decision underscores the franchise’s youth movement. Green Bay currently owns the youngest roster in the NFL, averaging 24.8 years of age. Moves like Robinson’s return further highlight the organization’s investment in long-term growth.
