The Indianapolis Colts emphatically announced to the NFL world that their quarterback situation for 2021 is taken care of, as they traded a third-round pick and conditional second-rounder to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for former No. 2 overall pick Carson Wentz. The move reunites Wentz with former Eagles OC and Colts head coach Frank Reich.
While Wentz was one of the league’s most promising quarterbacks under Reich, and he carried the Eagles to the postseason in 2018 and 2019, a 2020 season that saw him lead the league in interceptions despite only starting 12 games all but ruined his value, and Indy got him for a major discount.
