However, Wentz began to be regarded as a Top 10 prospect after his pro day. On January 30, 2016, he played in the 2016 Reese 's Senior Bowl and finished the game completing 6 of 10 pass attempts for 50 yards. At the NFL Scouting Combine, Wentz showcased his athleticism as he was in the top three in the 40 - yard dash, the broad jump, and the three - cone drill among all quarterbacks. Wentz also reportedly scored a 40 / 50 on his Wonderlic test. 2016 season : rookie year See also : 2016 Philadelphia Eagles season On April 28, 2016, the Philadelphia Eagles selected Wentz in the first round with the 2nd overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft.

He is also the first FCS quarterback taken in the first round since Joe Flacco was taken with the 18th overall selection in 2008, and the highest FCS quarterback taken in draft history. The Eagles traded three top 100 picks in 2016, a first round pick in 2017, and a second round pick in 2018 in order to move up in the draft order and get him.

He suffered a rib injury in the team 's first preseason game of 2016, but was fully healthy for the beginning of the 2016 regular season. Originally intending to have Wentz sit and learn for the 2016 season, those plans changed when on September 3, 2016, the Eagles traded quarterback Sam Bradford to the Minnesota Vikings. The same day, it was also reported that the team planned to start Wentz for the 2016 season when he became healthy. On September 5, Wentz was officially named the starter for the Eagles ' 2016 season opener against the Cleveland Browns.

In Week 3 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Wentz finished with 301 passing yards and 2 touchdowns as the Eagles won 34 -- 3. He was named the NFC Offensive Player of the Week for his performance against the Steelers. In Week 9, against the New York Giants, he was 27 - of - 47 for a season - high 364 yards and two interceptions in the 28 -- 23 loss. In his rookie season, Wentz started all 16 games for the Eagles as they finished the season with a 7 -- 9 record. Wentz threw for a league - record 379 completions by a rookie, breaking the record of 354 held by former teammate Sam Bradford, who was with the St. Louis Rams at the time. His 379 completions also set a single season franchise record, breaking the record of 346 also held by Bradford from the previous season. Wentz also set a single season franchise record with 607 pass attempts, the second highest attempts by a rookie in league history ( Andrew Luck had 627 in the 2012 season ). 2017 season See also : 2017 Philadelphia Eagles season Wentz passing against the Redskins in Week 1, 2017 In Week 1 against the Washington Redskins, Wentz finished with 307 passing yards, two touchdowns, and an interception from a pass tipped at the line of scrimmage as the Eagles won by a score of 30 -- 17.

During Week 9 against the Denver Broncos, Wentz finished with 199 passing yards and 4 touchdowns as the Eagles won 51 -- 23. During Week 14 against the Los Angeles Rams, Wentz left the game due to an apparent knee injury. He finished with 291 passing yards, 4 touchdowns, and an interception as the Eagles won 43 -- 35. The next day, an MRI revealed that his left knee had a torn ACL, keeping him out for the remainder of the season.
