After just one season, the Indianapolis Colts parted ways with quarterback Carson Wentz in March, a move that was nearly inevitable in the eyes of owner Jim Irsay.
After trading Wentz to the Washington Commanders for a handful of draft picks, Irsay told reporters that “it was very obvious” the Colts had to move on from the quarterback they had just traded a first-round pick for during the previous offseason.
Irsay also said moving on from that “mistake” was the better option than sticking with Wentz simply because they made the move to bring him in.
