Rather than getting into whether or not the author did get an actual person to comment, aka a “source,” I would rather look at what was said. And with that, I would like to focus on one word that made me laugh. “Egotistical.”
Carson Wentz is “egotistical.”
Wentz playing favorites. Look who he had out helping him feed people for free. Incredible.

Now, I know I’m not at every practice. I’m not inside the QB room. I’m not around Wentz off the field to really see how he operates when cameras are not around. But I’m willing to bet whatever you want, that Wentz is the farthest thing from “egotistical” because of two reasons.
First up, the AO1 Foundation.
I know, I know… everyone has a foundation, blah blah blah. Read up on the AO1. Read up on the food truck. Read up on the what Wentz did back in 2017 in Haiti.
Egotistical? Really.
Second, and this slams it home: Look at the reaction from multiple players. Don’t take my word for it, don’t take an anonymous source, look at what the actual players are saying:
• Jason Kelce via The Morning Call.
Reading through this Carson Wentz thing and as a leader on this team none of that is true Carson is a great teammate and great player we are all behind him 100% he’s our guy and will come back and prove the world wrong. If you got a problem feel free to @ me I’ll respond

What is interesting is to see who attached their names to this report. Or was by the author, but then didn’t want to really stick up for the report. That’s my feeling about the Jimmy Kempski tweet below.
I didn’t contribute any reporting to the story, and had minimal involvement with the editing of it. I believe Joe was just being thankful to me for that. I will say, however, that Joe has a good relationships with players on the team, and I trust his sourcing.

Not the last we will hear about this, I’m sure of that.
