Carson Wentzmay be panned for his accuracy on the field, but not so much off it … the NFL free agent QB took down a black bear with a bow and arrow, before posing with the animal.
As you might expect, reaction was … umm, mixed.
The former Super Bowl champ showed off his kill on Friday with a photo of a black bear and his Hoyt Archery bow on a grassy field in the Last Frontier.
“Got the opportunity to spot and stalk black bear in one of our new favorite places on earth— Alaska!” Wentz wrote in the caption.
“Incredible trip and an incredible animal!”
Despite the hunt being totally legal in Alaska, the photo didn’t sit well with a lot of people, who expressed their frustrations in the IG comments.
“Bro come on man. How can you take a living animal’s life like that? Ridiculous,” one fan wrote while others said they were going to unfollow the former Eagles and Colts quarterback on Instagram.
Outsider
Fans of Wentz will know this isn’t his first kill. Carson grew up hunting in North Dakota. In fact, the 30-year-old hunted a deer in Indiana a few months ago and shared the footage on his YouTube page.
Wentz isn’t the only NFL pro who enjoys hunting … Jay Cutler, DeAngelo Williams and Derek Wolfe, who took down a mountain lion that was a threat to a local community earlier this year, are also avid hunters.
Wentz — who played for the Commanders last season — is currently a free agent, and he’s clearly enjoying his free time.
