Wentz vows not to change playing style despite knee injury

If the Philadelphia Eagles expect a more conservative Carson Wentz when he returns from the knee injury that prematurely ended his season, they should apparently think again.

Wentz said Tuesday that he doesn't intend to change his aggressive playing style despite tearing his ACL on a negated touchdown scramble run in December.

"I definitely won't change, so to speak," Wentz said, according to Eliot Shorr-Parks of NJ Advance Media. "That has what made me successful this last season and my whole career. It is something I've learned since coming into the league - how to protect myself. ... I am not going to let this change me."

Wentz said in late January he believes he'll be ready for Week 1 of next season, though it's unclear how much he'll be able to participate in offseason activities.

Regardless of when we next see Wentz, it sounds like we'll be getting the same player who tore up the league in just his second season before going down.
