Carson Wentz has a back injury.

The severity is still not known.Two people familiar with the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback's injury confirmed reports that Wentz has a fractured vertebra Black Chris Maragos Jerseys , but no definitive determination has been made regarding his status, pending further evaluation.Both people spoke to The Associated Press on Thursday on condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to discuss Wentz's injury. Wentz sat out practice for the second straight day, increasing the possibility Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles will play at the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night. Wentz wore a red jersey and watched the open portion of practice.He's seeking more medical opinions before deciding a course of action.Dr. Andrew Sama, a spine surgeon at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York, said breaks in the spine can be considered stable or unstable."If considered unstable, these breaks usually require surgery to stabilize the spine to allow healing. Stable breaks are usually treated with rest and sometimes bracing," Sama told The AP in an email.Sama isn't treating Wentz so he doesn't know if he could continue to play through the injury."It's hard to say without knowing which vertebra is involved and what kind of break it is Chris Maragos Jerseys 2019 ," Sama said.Sama said stable fractures are treated through rest, physical therapy, and sometimes bracing."Breaks can sometimes take 6-12 weeks to heal," he added.Foles hasn't taken a snap in a game since Week 2. He took over in Week 14 last season after Wentz tore two ligaments in his left knee. Foles led Philadelphia to its first NFL title since 1960 and started the first two games this season, going 1-1.Wentz has 3,074 yards passing, 21 touchdowns and seven interceptions in 11 games this season after finishing third in the NFL MVP voting last year. He has career highs in passer rating (102.2) and completion rate (69.6 percent).Foles is 21-12 as a starter Black Corey Graham Jerseys , including playoffs, in two stints with Philadelphia.Giants lose on a very long field goal for the second year in a row The New York Giants continue to be bad — like, really bad. The Giants lost on Sunday to Carolina, 33-31, after the Panthers nailed a 63-yard field goal as the clock hit zero. (If that sounds familiar, the Eagles beat the Giants in similar fashion in 2017, when Jake Elliott made a 61-yard field goal Corey Graham Jerseys 2019 , making the kicker a legend in Philly — and forcing Carson Wentz to pony up his game check.)Week 5 was not kind to the Giants, who started the matchup with a botched punt by Odell Beckham Jr. that the Panthers recovered for a score, and rookie Saquon Barkley being sidelined after a late-game touchdown. OBJ’s botched punt was even more contentious given his comments earlier in the week about some of the issues surrounding the Giants offense — and throwing a quarterback whose name rhymes with Schmeli Schmanning under the bus.If there’s any good news for the 1-4 NFC East team, they snapped a 36-game streak in which they hadn’t scored more than 30 points. So, at least there’s that.
