Carson Wentz

TJ Houshmandzadeh joins Colin Cowherd on The Herd to discuss the latest news heading into Week 3 of the NFL season. Houshmandzadeh weighs in on the possibility of the New York Jets signing free agent QB Carson Wentz.

Steele was unable to make magic happen in this one despite leading the Chiefs in touches. Steele has proven himself as a capable ball carrier with Patrick Mahomes under center but playing well in an offense led by Carson Wentz is a far different ask. Steele will not be fantasy-relevant following the Chiefs' first-round bye.

Wentz unfortunately delivered an unforgettably frustrating performance as the Broncos shut out the Chiefs. The Broncos' elite pass rush dominated from start to finish, pressuring Wentz on a Week 18-high 43.5 percent of dropbacks while tacking 5.0 NFL sacks onto their league-leading 60.0 NFL-sack total. Wentz does not appear capable of leading the Chiefs offense if Patrick Mahomes were to miss time. The Chiefs are on bye next week, having secured the AFC's No. 1 playoff seed.

On top of a win of their own, the Bengals need the Carson Wentz-led Chiefs to beat the Broncos and Miami to lose versus the Jets this week to make the playoffs. Barring a miracle, Burtons appears to be going out with a whimper as a rookie. The head case receiver went for 107 yards on four receptions this year. Week 18 marks the third time the team has left him off the gameday roster. Burton had known red flags on his profile coming out of Alabama, but the Bengals overlooked them and selected him in the third round. The upside shot has not paid off and it's now fair to wonder if Burton will even make the roster in 2025.
