Looks like it's Foles for Eagles in Week 1

As coy as Philadelphia coach Doug Pederson has tried to play it, the whispers about QB CARSON WENTZ (knee) not quite being ready to return to game action are getting louder by the minute. Both Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport reported Saturday that the Eagles have settled on Super Bowl MVP NICK FOLES as their starter for Thursday night's opener against the Falcons. Previous speculation had been that the likeliest return date for Wentz might be Week 3, at home against the lowly Colts defense, but it sounds like this will be a strictly week-to-week situation until the team is comfortable that Wentz's risk of reinjury is tolerably low.
