If is actually wanted in Washington, it's increasingly unclear wants him. And not nece sarily because the quarterback has been mercurial for the NFC East's worst team. Days after singling out "quarterback" as the ' biggest weakne s, then for the remark, coach Ron Rivera is now taking credit for leading the pursuit of Wentz in the offseason. Why? Because Thursday's into team owner Daniel Snyder conveyed that Snyder was the true orchestrater of the Wentz trade Ed Dickson Jersey , partly as a means of masking his own off-field i sues.Don Van Natta Jr., Seth Wickersham and Tisha Thompson reported that other NFL owners want Snyder ousted for both his alleged workplace misconduct and failure to secure a new stadium for his franchise. Among the included anonymous accusations is the notion that Snyder remains involved in Washington's day-to-day operations, even though NFL commi sioner Roger Goodell has cited Snyder's reduced role as punishment for what the league deemed a "." The chief evidence of Snyder's allegedly defiant involvement was the Commanders' Shaquill Griffin Jersey trade for Wentz.Current and former team executives say Snyder is still far more involved running the club than most realize, imploring football decision-makers last March to trade for ... Carson Wentz -- despite a deal he made with Goodell in July 2021, when he was also fined $10 million, to give up day-to-day management to his wife, Tanya."It was 100 percent a Dan move," anonymous Commanders staffers told ESPN of the Wentz acquisition. Snyder had previously told a sociates for years, ESPN reported, that acquiring a prominent signal-caller would protect him from repercu sions related to other i sues: "All my problems will be solved," he allegedly said, "if I can just get a marquee quarterback." Washington e sentially dealt a pair of third-round Ethan Pocic Jersey draft picks to land Wentz from the this spring, absorbing the QB's full 2022 salary-cap hit of $28.3 million. Rivera has since disputed Snyder's reported Jaron Brown Jersey push for Wentz, saying in a team statement that he, not Snyder, was behind the initial recruitment of the embattled former and Colts starter: "Prior to the start of free agency, I went to Dan and Tanya's home," Rivera said, , "and told them Carson Wentz was one of the quarterbacks at the top of our list, and as always, the Snyders were supportive of our vision for building this roster."Wentz, for what it's worth, doesn't seem publicly bothered by any of the hubbub. After Rivera's controversial back-and-forth regarding his current opinion of the QB -- a "mea culpa moment," the coach called it, that also sparked backlash from former Commanders QB -- Wentz downplayed the effect it's had on him. "Coach addre sed it, handled it," he told reporters this week. "(It's) nothing, for me, that I'm overly concerned about it. Coach is a very straightforward, Marquise Blair Jersey upfront guy, and he addre sed it in the team meeting, which I thought was really cool, and what he meant by it all."
