WESTFIELD – Carson Wentz will undergo surgery to repair an old foot injury, and it remains unclear how long the Indianapolis Colts quarterback will be sidelined.
Head coach Frank Reich returned to practice Monday at Grand Park after his own bout with COVID-19 and gave a detailed explanation of Wentz’s past few days. The injury concerns the quarterback’s left metatarsal and likely was the result of an undiagnosed broken foot in high school.
The bone fragment was dislodged during a rollout late in Thursday’s practice and caused severe pain and discomfort. An option to rehab the foot without surgery was briefly considered, but Reich said the Colts wanted more predictability moving forward.
