Maybe Carson is in a situation where, from a mental standpoint, it doesn't matter for him to take less money, toe work with the cap of the next team.

He may be able to do that.

He may be able to go back and restructure with Philadelphia to get out of there and say, You know what, man?

It is worth it to me.

My sanity is worth it to give you some of this money back so I can part and go on.

I mean, that it may be worth it.

Guys, get to that point.

I was at that point in my own career when I played for Jon Gruden, the time Bay Buccaneers and I let him know at the beginning, the season, No matter what you do, I don't want an extension.

I don't want anything.

I just want to get the hell away from you, Period.

You could have it all.

I just wanna go and so when you get to a certain point, some things are not repairable.

And if that's where he's at, because quarterbacks and I've said this to Jason and you and other guys my entire career.

Quarterbacks are sensitive.

They are just sensitive, man.

They're very fragile.

Delic.

That's why when people push him up at the top and they don't stay at the top, they crumble.

As soon as something happens, they fall apart in that what you're seeing potentially in Carson wins.

I know Carson's disappointed.

My job is to get it right.

My job is to fix it.

That's not how he rose in his job.

That's Carson Wentz, his job to fix it.

You talk about quarterbacks being sensitive, so let's go back to before the season started because he was an opportunity for a quarterback to be sensitive.

And I want to show you the way he responded.

Granted, he may be one of the best quarterbacks we've ever seen to do it.

Jordan love gets drafted.

There's a whole lot of swirl about what's gonna happen here in Green Bay and what's gonna happen with this young stuff that's gonna come in.

You know, Aaron Rodgers responded to it.

13 and three record in M V P season.

He goes out and he takes it.

So now I'm sitting here watching the way Doug Peterson has handled postgame pressers, which has been embarrassing.

In my opinion, even though you disagree Key.

It's been embarrassing, in my opinion, to now seeing, ah, quarterback who looks mentally fractured.

And now I see Howie Roseman.

Doug Peterson talked about how doe I salvage this relationship.

How do I say that?

My question is, why are you trying to save a relationship when you have to have somebody who wants to fight for the relationship?

If I If I'm in a relationship and you don't wanna fight to stay in a relationship with me, why am I trying to crawl towards you?

To help you fight for relationship?

You have to want to take it.

You have to wanna be in here with me, and I just don't know if Carson Wentz has the mental fortitude and I don't know him.

I'm just saying off reports that I hear from all these great reporters that we have ESPN now.

One thing about whether Carson Wentz, you know, whether it's you know, negotiation, talk with agents, you know, really trying to hang it out there to create, you know, a little bit more attraction for Carson Wentz.

But I don't want to see Howie Roseman and Doug Peterson.

How do we fix this?

No, I wanna hear Carson.

Wentz said I'm gonna go out and take it and thats gonna be mine.

Well, look, J as of right now, he's Holly.

Roseman said that as of now they're not trading him as of today.

Remember what I said when we first started this segment?

The season just ended the other day.

They got a long ways to go before they get to making a decision on what they want to do with Carson Wentz at the quarterback spot.

Conversations that have to take place.

Then when you say that he has toe wannabe in it and Doug Peterson is handling press conferences and doing things a certain way.

Carson Wentz, new that Jalen Hurts was drafted to play.

Eventually, at some point in time, the kid was gonna play whether it was this year, next year, the year after, not necessarily kid to be able to hold him off.

Yeah, exactly what I mean.

Jordan, Jordan.

Love was drafted her.

I mean, Aaron Rodgers crumble, but everybody is different, though j understand body everybody meant to Fortitude is different.

Some people can handle certain situations When you draft a guy behind them, they guy, you know, guys get drafted every single year, man.

And you think that players in this league that a guy's like an Rogers is gonna worry about that now.

He's gonna go out there, take care of business.

But when you, Carson Wentz, maybe you are not as strong from a mental standpoint to be ableto handle all the chatter.

What goes on in SportsCenter, what goes on in the newspapers, what people are saying on sports talk radio you He may not be able to handle that, and that's okay.

That's okay.

It's up to Doug.

And how are we to understand what they have at the quarterback spot now?

They see it now.

They understand it.

They now can approach it and handle it a certain way rather than do it emotionally because Carson wants to do it or his representatives want to say he wants to be traded doesn't mean anything.

People tell front office people all the time, every single day J in every sport, my guys not happy.

He wants to be traded.

He needs a new contract.

It's how you handle it in the front office.

No question.

Couple things will quickly mention before we get to the NFL insider Dan Graziano, who's got some juicy stuff after Joe Judge's comments with the Giants.

And that would be the simple manifestation of it.

Right now, Carson Wentz looks at Jalen hurts and says, This kid's a baller.

This kid can play all the reports coming out saying that.

Well, e think people look at him and say, This guy's pretty good.

This guy has something, whereas a lot of people, According to the reports in Green Bay, it's been very limited sample size that, at this point joined Love needs a telescope to see Aaron Rodgers.

I mean, the difference between hurts and wins, obviously a little bit more narrow.

The last number I wanted to bring up to you is the dead cap number, the largest dead cap number in the history of the NFL ever, I guess.

Take a guess.

Trivia time.

28 million.

Good close.

Robert Woods, $21.8 million.

When's his cap It the only reason I bring this up to put it in context.

When's his cap?

It would be about $35 million.

A $35 million dead cap hit 30 $18 million mawr than the largest one we've ever seen in the history of the NFL.

In a year where the salary cap is going to take a dip when traditionally it rises, and so that his point there's gonna be a larger percentage.

He was gonna hurt even more.

Just I just want to go back to your first point when he said about the Gap is a little bit narrower between, uh, Carson Wentz and Jalen Hurts, as opposed to Jordan Love and Aaron Rodgers.

Yeah, but the gap is also massive.

When you talk about what one got paid right, $128 million like they paid the wrong guy, they paid the wrong guy.
