The Adam Schefter Podcast on Carson Wentz

PodcastWhy the Packers Slide Continued, Baker's Revenge + Week 2 Betting TrendsSeptember 17, 2026

From the episode

it's going to be another week of Carson Wentz going up against a Chicago Bears defense... And it'll be another opportunity for Wentz to show the Vikings, hey, if Kyler Murray's out, I can be the guy. If Kyler Murray is back, I can be the backup.

STACKED’s take

Wentz likely to start if Murray is out

Carson Wentz is expected to start for the Vikings if Kyler Murray remains out, providing him another opportunity to prove he can be the guy, or return to a backup role if Murray returns.
