Carson Wentz Odds: Welcome to Indianapolis
The Super Bowl always demands attention, but the NFL off-season is going to be sick. The most important player on any team is almost always the quarterback. This year, there are several high-profile names that may be switching teams. Names like Matthew Stafford and Deshaun Watson get headlines, and Cam Newton will be discussed, but according to the Carson Wentz odds, the Philadelphia Eagles may have a new quarterback next season.
This article is updated with the latest news, rumors, and information. Check back often!

Update Feb 15, 2021
Carson Wentz to the Colts!
It’s not official, but this is what I am betting on. The best odds for Wentz to the Colts can be found here. Many sportsbooks are pulling the odds for Carson Wentz, so if you are going to bet on this, do it now.
WHERE WILL CARSON WENTZ PLAY IN 2021 SEASON?
Bet Now Indianapolis Colts +200
It has been rumored that the Wentz trade was going to happen soon, but it has taken weeks. Now ESPN has once again reported it will be done soon. Why the change? The Colts and the Bears balked at the original offer. Now the Eagles are adding pieces (like Zach Ertz) to make it happen.
SOURCE: #Eagles have talked to Seahawks, Colts about trade for Zach Ertz. While it may prove difficult from a salary cap standpoint to make Carson Wentz and Ertz a package deal to Indy, maybe Ertz and Andre Dillard go in same deal. Here’s a closer look:https://t.co/haiHjEPkUU

NO mystery Carson Wentz & Zach Ertz want to rejoin old O-Coordinator Frank Reich w/ #Colts. Question is does GM Chris Ballard want to utilize $33.65M in cap space for the duo? Hoarded that space for yrs to extend his homegrown core. Namely, Quenton Nelson & Darius Leonard.
— Chad Forbes (@NFLDraftBites) February 15, 2021
The deal is not done yet, but I am betting that he lands in Indianapolis as the new quarterback of the Colts.
Update Feb 14, 2021
The latest headlines on the Eagles and Carson Wentz are all the same. The Eagles cannot get enough interest in Wentz to get a1st round pick. Reports suggest that some teams may offer a future 1st round draft pick that is not in the upcoming draft, but even that is unlikely.
Not too long ago, we heard that the #Eagles were expected to get a first-round pick in a Carson Wentz trade. So far, no teams have been willing to offer a first-rounder for Wentz: https://t.co/LL8qZULdTA

Despite the drop in value, the most popular destination is still in Chicago. Several outlets believe a Wentz for Foles swap is still in the making. The odds still have Chicago as the favorite, but Wentz remaining in Philly is still a real possibility.
Update Feb 13, 2021
The NFL rumor mill is dominated by JJ Watt and Russell Wilson rumors, but don’t forget about Carson Wentz. It is clear the Eagles are going to move Wentz.

It is very clear from these rumors that the Eagles have lost all leverage. It is also clear that now the Colts, Bears, and the Panthers control the bidding war if there is such a thing. (There’s not). The odds have slightly changed since this report. The Bears are still heavy favorites just ahead of the Colts, Eagles, and the Broncos. See the complete Carson Wentz odds and here and get up to $2500 to bet on his next team.
Update Feb 9, 2021
The rumors are saying that Carson Wentz will be traded and the Bears and the Colts are the favorites, but that depends on where you look. Sportsbooks once again have posted odds and they may surprise you.
At BetUS, the Bears are the favorites but keeping Wentz with the Eagles is not as far-fetched as some may think. The Raiders and Panthers also may be a team to watch.
But at BetOnline, the odds are different. The Bears are still the favorite, but the Eagles are not on the board.
If you are going to bet on Wentz going to the Colts, the time is now. Wentz reportedly prefers the Colts as his landing spot and that may force the Eagles to make a trade.
Carson Wentz would prefer to be traded to #Colts instead of Bears, according to @CSimmsQB:
“I was told by some people I trust that he prefers the Colts’ situation, certainly.” pic.twitter.com/khwB8csK9G

Update Feb 8, 2021
With the Super Bowl complete, the focus will be on the NFL draft and the rumors surrounding trades. The Texans swear that they will keep Deshaun Watson, and that has put all of the focus on Carson Wentz. The Bears and the Colts are still the front runners.
The Chicago Bears want to trade for quarterback Carson Wentz but aren’t interested in giving up two first-round picks.

— Daniel Greenberg (@ChiSportUpdates) February 8, 2021
As we reported before the Bears (or any team) is reluctant to give up more than one first-round pick and that can indicate that more than one team will be in the mix in this deal.
Adding to this: Based on my conversations about Wentz’s market, I wouldn’t be surprised if a potential trade involved multiple non-Wentz players as well. https://t.co/cRewSVLj9r
— Mike Kaye (@mike_e_kaye) February 8, 2021
The Raiders are reportedly one team that can be involved in the deal. Only one sportsbook that I know of still has odds on where he will be traded, but they change quickly so if you are going to bet on where Wentz plays next season, bet on it now.
Update Feb 06, 2021
The Bears are making a move that reportedly will send Nick Foles back to Philadelphia.
Name I’m hearing is Tarik Cohen, a first rounder and yes world, Nick Foles. https://t.co/dEsK5N8oV8
— Natalie Egenolf (@NatalieEgenolf) February 7, 2021
If yesterday was not exciting enough, the news about Carson Wentz just keeps on coming. His time in Philadelphia is done and he is going to get traded. Only one sportsbook that I know of still has odds on where he will be traded, but they will be taken down soon once the details leak out.
Eagles are expected to trade Carson Wentz in the coming days in what would be the latest blockbuster QB deal to rock the NFL, sources tell @mortreport and me. The most pertinent questions now become where, when and for what. But it could happen as early as this week.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) February 6, 2021
Philly will need the team taking Wentz to help out with money or give something huge in returns due to the dead cap hit. This may mean more than one team is getting involved.
A team acquiring Carson Wentz will take on 4 years and $98.4M left on his contract ($24.7M per year).
His cap hits would be:
2021: $25.4M
2022: $22M
2023: $25M
2024: $26MPhilly would eat a $33.8M dead cap hit in 2021, the largest in NFL history.

Update Feb 05, 2021
All the talk around Wentz is that he may go to the Colts or the Bears, but usually, it is the team flying under the radar that makes the deal. In this case, the team that may sneak in to make the best deal is the Las Vegas Raiders. Many of the sportsbooks are pulling odds which usually means the deal is close. Only one sportsbook still has odds at all.
The Colts are the obvious No. 1. But I think the Raiders should be viewed as a real possibility as well. #Eagles https://t.co/l82633dDdl
— Eliot Shorr-Parks (@EliotShorrParks) February 5, 2021
The Raiders, not the Colts, seem like the most likely Carson Wentz destination to me.
There has been some talk that Reich doesn’t even really want Wentz.
Gruden and Mayock have been ardent Wentz proponents in the past.https://t.co/knikyaoXzK
— Brandon Lee Gowton (@BrandonGowton) February 5, 2021
Update Feb 05, 2021
Deshaun Watson is still the main QB everyone is talking about but the Wentz trade chatter is starting to heat up.
A trade seems like it could happen very soon #Eagles https://t.co/82z2oAwCN7
— Eliot Shorr-Parks (@EliotShorrParks) February 5, 2021
And one of the teams interested in getting Wentz is the Colts. Although the odds are in favor of another team, the Colts may pull it off. At one point the Colts were plus 400 (see odds below) to get Wentz and that number is changing. Here are the latest odds.
Frank Reich seems to be going after Carson Wentz, as expected. 🧐https://t.co/DhQySq20MN

Update Feb 04, 2021
All of the NFL QB news has been about Matthew Stafford going to the Rams or where Deshaun Watson will play next year. There is not much news about Carson Wentz, because the assumption is that the Eagles hired a head coach to “fix” Wentz. That may have changed.
The #Eagles are getting trade calls centered around QB Carson Wentz. And while Philly doesn’t plan to deal him, they haven’t hung up the phone, either.
My story with @MikeGarafolo: https://t.co/gxyA0Rd8qT
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) February 4, 2021
This sportsbook posted odds on Wentz, but they were later pulled down when it was assumed that Wentz will stay in Philadelphia. Expect his odds to be posted again soon.
There will be a good market for Carson Wentz and the #Eagles will get a 1st-round pick back for him: https://t.co/S5FEdqpQXC

Update Jan 26, 2021
If you are going to bet on the Carson Wentz trade rumors and where he will play next year, it is best to shop around. Just yesterday the Colts were listed as +150 favorites, but at this sportsbooks, you can get the Colts at +400. Get the best price!

Here are the latest odds on where Carson Wentz may play next season. [BETNOW]
Fly Away From the Eagles Fly
At one point it was a given that Wentz was leaving. Jalen Hurts took over the position and it looked inevitable that Went would be gone. Fast forward a few weeks and Dough Pederson is fired and now Wentz is still wanted in Philly. According to the odds, Philly is the favorite to keep Carson at +125, but it’s closer than most may believe.
The Eagles media is sensing that a departure is imminent and they are turning on Wentz.
Everything we’ve heard about Carson Wentz (who declined an opportunity to speak) since being benched indicates he doesn’t really think he was a big part of the Eagles’ problem last year.
Not seeing evidence of him being humbled or self-aware.https://t.co/Q368thkIgz
— Brandon Lee Gowton (@BrandonGowton) January 25, 2021
Other Landing Spots
Philadelphia made a coaching change and the hope is that Nick Sirianni can convince Carson to stay. This is a coach that has zero play-calling experience. Although he may succeed it’s unlikely that Wentz will want to stay.
“Nick Sirianni has already touched base with Carson Wentz. The front office believes Wentz can be salvaged, but the coach will have a lot of input in that regard.”@MikeGarafolo on NFL network.#Eagles
— Thomas R. Petersen 🦅 (@thomasrp93) January 24, 2021
It’s unlikely. The Eagles may be the favorite, but the Indianapolis Colts, Denver Broncos, Chicago Bears, and the New England Patriots have all shown interest in Wentz. Philadelphia is a brutal place and Wentz is ready for a change.
