Carson Wentz already being booed in Philly
Well, that didn't take long.
Carson Wentz already is being booed in Philadelphia, and the young franchise QB just got there after being drafted by the Eagles with the No. 2 pick.
Wentz arrived in Philly and didn't stop to sign autographs as he exited the airport, which led at least one fan to begin the booing.
To be fair, Wentz apparently was instructed by security not to stop, and the fans asking for autographs were aggressive seekers called out by local media and others.

Eagles fans have been unhappy since the team traded up to get the No. 2 pick and then again when Sam Bradford asked to be traded. But most fans seem as excited for Wentz as this guy:
