Colts QB Carson Wentz (foot) is trending to start Week 1 after undergoing foot surgery at the beginning of August.
Fantasy Impact: Chris Mortensen reports that Jacob Eason and Sam Ehlinger will be competing for the backup job as Wentz is “trending to open the season as the starter.” This development would be huge for the entire offense, including the likes of Jonathan Taylor, Michael Pittman Jr., Parris Campbell, and T.Y. Hilton. Mortensen also reports that Quenton Nelson is on a similar trajectory and could also start Week 1 vs. the Seahawks. The initial recovery timeline was put at 5-12 weeks, and starting Week 1 would put the recovery at about six weeks, so this lines up accordingly.
