Eagles
Eagles HC Doug Pederson told reporters on Monday that he spoke with QB Carson Wentz last night and told him that he’s a “big part” of why they were able to win the Super Bowl.
“I had a chance to talk to Carson actually on the field, on the podium, last night after the game and just told him to take this in, just enjoy this moment,” Pederson said, via Pro Football Talk. “He’s a great quarterback, and he’s a big reason. I told him, ‘You’re a big, big part of why this team won this championship and won this game.’ I told him that hopefully we’ll be back in this game with him leading the way.”
Pederson was asked about the team’s plans for the quarterback position moving forward now that they’ve won a Super Bowl with Nick Foles.
“I knew I couldn’t get off the stage without that question,” Pederson said. “You know what? We’re just going to enjoy this moment. I’m going to tell you right now: We’re going to enjoy it. We’re going get on this plane and go back to Philadelphia, and we’re going to celebrate with our fans back in Philly. We’ve got a long offseason — really a short offseason now. We’re just going to enjoy this moment.
“I’m happy for Nick. I’m happy for the team. It’s not about one guy. It’s about the team. We’re going to enjoy these next few days.”
