Indianapolis Colts quarterback Carson Wentz has been placed on the NFL’s COVID-19 list.
For the Colts, no Wentz means no starting quarterback, which in turn means recent Texas Longhorns alum Sam Ehlinger, who started under center in Austin for roughly four years, might be next up in the lineup, the Athletic reports. From the Athletic:
Sam Ehlinger [is] a sixth-round pick from last spring who’s only taken 18 mop-up duty regular-season snaps and wasn’t particularly impressive in the preseason before succumbing to a knee sprain in the final exhibition game in Detroit.
