NFL quarterback Carson Wentz hunts down black bear in Alaska: 'Bucket list opportunity'
Wentz and his brother share a hunting YouTube channel and Instagram page
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Carson Wentz has some time on his hands since he's a free agent, so he's crossing off things on his "bucket list."
When he's not playing football, the NFL quarterback and his brother, Zach Wentz, create hunting content on their YouTube channel, "Wentz Bros Outdoors."
The siblings also share an Instagram account of their experiences, and Carson was able to do something hunters only dream of.

On Friday morning, Wentz posted a photo of himself with a black bear he just hunted in Alaska with a bow and arrow.
"Bucket list," Wentz wrote with a checkmark emoji in his Instagram caption. "Got the opportunity to spot and stalk black bear in one of our new favorite places on earth— Alaska! Incredible trip and an incredible animal!"

Wentz isn't the first football player to go on a hunting mission this offseason — former defensive lineman Derek Wolfe killed a mountain lion in January after it had killed two dogs and a mule deer in a rural neighborhood in Colorado.
