Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz has performed remarkably well during the season so far, but had a rough day against the Minnesota Vikings defense.
A rookie was bound to struggle against the elite Minnesota defense. What most probably didn’t expect, was Wentz taking a massive, flying arm right in the groin.
Here’s what the dirty play looked like.

Players flailing arms and legs around isn’t anything new in sports—just ask Draymond Green. Now Wentz fully understands this rule thanks to Shamar Stephen.
Wentz has to thank the natural protections worn by professional players for saving the day. He had already committed three turnovers before the incident, so getting hit by a cheap shot just made things even worse.
Regardless, the Eagles defense has completely shut down the Vikings offense, and Philadelphia could be the first team to knock off Minnesota this season. Would be a huge win.
