The biggest decision for the Indianapolis Colts this offseason surrounds the future of starting quarterback Carson Wentz, who has already dominated the headlines for the team since the devastating collapse to end the 2021 campaign.
The Colts will be looking at all of their options when it comes to Wentz and the quarterback position. While “no firm decision” has been made yet, the buzz around Wentz being traded has already started.
The likelihood of Wentz being traded can be debated to no end. No one truly knows outside of Chris Ballard and the front office. Even they, at this point, are still going through all of the options.
While there is an equal chance Wentz stays with the Colts for another season, that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t take a look at the potential trade destinations for the 29-year-old quarterback.
Given that the offseason officially just started, it’s hard to truly gauge which teams are realistic suitors. We’ll try our best here to be as realistic as possible, taking salary cap (via Over The Cap) and positional need into consideration.
Trading Wentz will be difficult considering the contract another team would likely have to take on. He’s already guaranteed $15 million and will get another guaranteed roster bonus on March 18. The Colts may have to work some magic—aka eat some money—if a deal will really come to fruition.
