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.

Ranking the biggest concerns for each AFC South team in 2021

Splits reps with Ehlinger Eason and Sam Ehlinger split first-team QB snaps at Tuesday's practice, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports.

Impact Bremer adds that coach Frank Reich indicated that the Colts plan to continue to split their first-team signal-caller reps and take things "day-by-day." Meanwhile, Bremer also notes that Eason is still expected to start Sunday's preseason opener against the Panthers and log first-team work in that contest. Either way, this is a situation worth monitoring, given that No. 1 QB Carson Wentz (foot) is a candidate to miss time early on this season.

Ample preseason action on deck Coach Frank Reich said "[Eason is] probably going to play a lot more than Carson [Wentz] would" this preseason, Kevin Hickey of USA Today reports.

Impact The majority of Indianapolis' starters will likely only handle sparse preseason snaps in order to avoid potential injuries, but with Wentz looking at a 5-to-12 week recovery timetable after undergoing foot surgery, Eason will need all the game reps he can get. As a result of the 2020 fourth-round pick redshirting behind Philip Rivers and Jacoby Brissett as a rookie, the Colts have only really been able to evaluate him in practices. Reich recently indicated that he expects Eason to play two quarters in Indianapolis' preseason opener against Carolina on Aug. 15.

Impact With Carson Wentz a candidate to miss time early on this season due to a foot procedure, Eason has been thrust into the spotlight and is currently atop the Colts' quarterback depth chart. Also in the team's signal-caller mix are Sam Ehlinger, Jalen Morton and Brett Hundley, but at this time Eason profiles as Indy's Week 1 starter should Wentz 's recovery extend into the regular season.

Carson Wentz opts for foot surgery, likely out five to 12 weeks

Will fill in for Wentz With Carson Wentz slated to undergo a foot procedure, Eason is in line to handle the Colts' starting QB duties for the time being, Zak Keefer of The Athletic reports.

Impact Per Adam Schefter of ESPN, Wentz will miss an estimated 5-to-12 weeks. Under that broad timeline, there's the distinct possibility that Eason will be the Colts' starting signal-caller Week 1. With that in mind, coach Frank Reich indicated that the "job is Jacob's right now...and he's gotta earn it. But he's in the driver's seat." Also currently in the team's quarterback mix are Sam Ehlinger, Brett Hundley and Jalen Morton.
