MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - Carson Wentz will start as quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Wentz to start as QB
What we know:
Vikings Coach Kevin O'Connell announced on Friday that Wentz would be the starter. Max Brosmer will be the backup quarterback, and J.J. McCarthy will serve as the emergency QB.
It had been unclear who O'Connell would start against the Eagles. Wentz had an injury in his non-throwing shoulder, while J.J. McCarthy has missed three games with an ankle injury.
McCarthy said earlier this week his ankle wasn't 100%.
