Colts' Carson Wentz to Miss Up to 12 Weeks After Foot Surgery

Colts quarterback Carson Wentz will require foot surgery and is expected to miss between five and 12 weeks, head coach Frank Reich announced Monday.

Initial reports last week said Wentz suffered a foot injury at the end of practice on Thursday, July 29, and Reich noted Monday that Wentz had an old foot injury dating back perhaps to high school. Over time, according to Reich, that broken bone came loose and caused pain. It will now be removed in the upcoming procedure.

Offensive coordinator Marcus Brady said Friday that Wentz felt a "twinge in his foot" when he rolled out and planted to throw late in Thursday's practice.
