Colts' Quenton Nelson to Undergo Surgery on Foot Injury, Could Miss 5-12 Weeks

Indianapolis Colts guard Quenton Nelson suffered a foot injury that will require surgery.

The team announced Tuesday the surgery is the same as the one suffered by Colts quarterback Carson Wentz, who will miss 5-to-12 weeks.

Colts head coach Frank Reich said Tuesday that Nelson's surgery will be the same as Wentz's, and added that Nelson will have the same return timetable of 5-to-12 weeks.

The 25-year-old Nelson was the No. 6 overall selection by the Colts in the 2018 NFL draft, and apparently, the team didn't have to think too hard about making the pick.
