Washington Commanders quarterback Carson Wentz faced boos from fans at FedExField on Sunday in his return to the field against the Cleveland Browns.
Wentz started hearing the boos about him in the first quarter when he threw an interception to Browns cornerback Denzel Ward. He heard them again in the second quarter when his third drive of the game led to an interception by Grant Delpit. Two interceptions in the first half wasn’t a good start.
