Following the blockbuster trade that involved sending quarterback Carson Wentz to the Washington Commanders, the Indianapolis Colts will be searching for a new starter.
While the Colts will consider their options via trade, free agency and the 2022 NFL draft, there’s another name that is likely to be in the mix as the starter under center in Indy: Sam Ehlinger.
The 2021 sixth-round pick didn’t see any meaningful snaps during his rookie season but spent the majority of it as the backup to Wentz. According to Zak Keefer of The Athletic, Ehlinger will get some consideration as the starter for 2022.
