When the 2016 NFL season began, Carson Wentz looked like a superstar in the making.
Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 16: Carson Wentz a risky play vs. Giants
Carson Wentz has had a rocky rookie season. Can he finish strong for the Eagles and fantasy owners?


The No. 2 overall pick of the 2016 NFL Draft recorded a passer rating of 100-plus in three of his first four games, but as the season wore on, defenses began adjusting to him, and he has struggled mightily since that hot start.
Wentz has failed to have even an 80 passer rating in seven of his last 10 games. He also has just four touchdowns throws over his last seven games. Do not expect him to play any better when the Philadelphia Eagles host the New York Giants on Thursday Night Football.
Fantasy Impact: Yahoo! ranks Wentz as the 31st-best quarterback this week. He faces a Giants defense allowing the second-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks this season.
Keep Wentz on the bench this week. He is not even worth rostering in anything outside of dynasty leagues.
