Not all heroes wear capes, sometimes they wear a polo shirt and khakis.

That is what Carson Wentz was wearing when he removed a Cowboys' fans hat as he joined Wentz on stage during the festivities taking place on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway prior to the beginning of the first round of the NFL Draft:

The fan was enjoying playing the villain as he approached the stage like Rick Rude approaching a wrestling ring, encouraging the crowd to boo him. As the fan went to shake Wentz's hand, Wentz denied him, swiftly extending his arm towards the fan's hat and discarding of it.

In one fell swoop Carson Wentz turned the crowd's disdain into uproarious approval, something that fans will expect him to do throughout this upcoming season.

Stay tuned for updates to see which player will be joining Wentz on the Eagles' roster.
