Sam Ehlinger - In line to start preseason Week 2 Coach Frank Reich said Ehlinger likely will start the Colts' second preseason game Saturday, Aug. 21 in Minnesota, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports.
Impact Before then, though, Jacob Eason will be under center first during Sunday's exhibition opener versus the Panthers. After Carson Wentz underwent foot surgery earlier this month, Eason received most of the first-team reps, but the second-year pro and Ehlinger -- a 2021 sixth-rounder -- have been splitting those snaps in recent practices.

Jacob Eason - Getting starting nod Sunday Coach Frank Reich said Eason will start Sunday's preseason game against the Panthers, when he's likely to see action into the second quarter, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald B...
Impact Once Carson Wentz (foot) went under the knife, Eason received most of the first-team reps before yielding about half of them to rookie Sam Ehlinger in recent practices. Still, Eason is getting the first chance to be under center Saturday before Ehlinger has that same opportunity in preseason Week 2 at Minnesota. Eason, a 2020 fourth-round pick, has yet to throw a pass in an NFL game, exhibition or otherwise.
