NDSU’s favorite former player Carson Wentz on Thursday Night Football

Is he the Timex watch of quarterbacks? He's had an awful lot of injuries.
For the 'age challenged posters' on eGriz:
"Takes a licking but keeps on ticking" is a famous advertising slogan for Timex watches, associated with a series of "torture test" commercials in the mid-20th century. Hosted by newsman John Cameron Swayze, the ads would subject a Timex watch to rough treatment and damage before showing that it continued to tell time, making the phrase a symbol of durability. The slogan has since become an idiomatic expression for anything that endures hardship and continues to function.
