PHILADELPHIA, PA — The Carson Wentz era in Philadelphia is officially over, and the one-time future of the Eagles franchise is selling his local home.

The $1.7 million estate sits on some 11 acres deep in South Jersey, and is surrounded by sprawling fields, woods, ponds, and more. You can take a look inside the home via the Redfin real estate listing.

Wentz was traded to the Indianapolis Colts last month after a brutal 2020 season ended with a last place finish for the Eagles. Wentz, who had the worst year of his career, was benched in the final weeks in favor of rookie Jalen Hurts, and rumors swirled about a strained relationship with head coach Doug Pederson.

According to Redfin, it features five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and 7,500 square feet. Some of it's more unique features, according to the listing:
