Needs foot surgery Nelson will have foot surgery Tuesday and is facing a recovery timeline of 5-to-12 weeks, Mike Wells of ESPN.com reports.
Impact The superstar guard reportedly has the same injury as Carson Wentz and will have his surgery performed by the same doctor just one day after the Colts QB went under the knife. The team now is in danger of beginning the regular season without its starting quarterback and best offensive lineman, though it won't be too surprising if Nelson -- a 25-year-old freak athlete in his prime -- pushes ahead of Wentz in the rehab process. Regardless, it's another tough break for the Colts offense.

Fifth-year option picked up The Colts have exercised Nelson's fifth-year option for 2022.
Impact The move locks Nelson in with Indianapolis through the 2022 season at a salary of around $13 million, but it may only be a placeholder for an eventual long-term deal. One of the best lineman in the NFL, Nelson may be in store for a contract that would exceed the $46.89 million guaranteed Joe Thuney received from the Chiefs earlier this offseason, which currently stands as the NFL record for a guard.
