Colts Unsure of Wentz’s Status After Spraining Both Ankles
The Indianapolis Colts already were unsure if Carson Wentz could play this week after injuring his right ankle and the oddsmakers have moved this line from +3 to +5.5 Colts in the midst of the uncertainty.
On Monday, doctors found Wentz had sprained both ankles.
Coach Frank Reich said the injuries could force the winless Colts to visit defending AFC South champion Tennessee without their starting quarterback and he does not yet have a timetable for Wentz’s return.
“When it comes to sprained ankles there are degrees,” Reich said before meeting with the doctors. “I know Carson has a high threshold of pain. My history with Carson is that he’s a pretty fast healer and he’s tough. If he can play, he’ll play.”
