Heading into Training Camp at Grand Park in Westfield, it seemed like a foregone conclusion that the Colts would carry 2 Quarterbacks on the 53-man roster: Matt Ryan and Nick Foles. Sam Ehlinger has played his way into one of the most hotly debated topics amongst Colts fans. Should the Colts carry 3 QBs on the roster after Ehlinger’s performance in the preseason? He used the final game to put an exclamation point on a fantastic preseason.
Wam, bam, thank you Sam! ⚡️
