Carson Wentz to Jalen Ramsey

On Sunday, October 4, 2026, everyone playing the NFL Today's Linkster got the same two players: get from Carson Wentz to Jalen Ramsey in as few links as possible. Par was 4, counted through colleges, but any shared college, jersey number or team counted as a move.

The two players

  • Carson Wentz (QB, 2017–2026) College: North Dakota State. Teams: Indianapolis Colts, Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Rams, Minnesota Vikings, Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Commanders. Numbers: #2 and #11.
  • Jalen Ramsey (CB, 2017–2026) College: Florida State. Teams: Jacksonville Jaguars, Los Angeles Rams, Miami Dolphins and Pittsburgh Steelers. Numbers: #5 and #20.

Seasons 2017–2026. Jersey numbers and teams only count from seasons in that range.
