Colts quarterback Carson Wentz and All-Pro guard Quenton Nelson are both trending toward playing in Week 1 against the Seahawks as they recover from recent foot injuries, according to ESPN's Chris Mortensen.
The team had announced that both Wentz and Nelson would be sidelined five-to-12 weeks after undergoing similar operations. Wentz underwent surgery on August 2 while Nelson underwent surgery on August 3.
As ESPN notes, the Colts hope to have a better indication of both players' rehabilitation status once they get past the two-week post-surgery point.
In Wentz's absence, sixth-round rookie Sam Ehlinger and 2020 fourth-round pick Jacob Eason are now splitting first-team snaps in practice.
