INDIANAPOLIS -- The Colts are trading quarterback Carson Wentz to the Washington Commanders for a package of picks, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The Colts will receive the Commanders' third-round picks in 2022 and 2023, sources said. The 2023 third-rounder can become a second-round pick if Wentz plays 70% of Washington's snaps. The teams also swapped second-round picks in 2022, with the Colts moving up from No. 47 overall to No. 42.

Sources told Schefter that Washington will pay the full $28 million due to Wentz for the 2022 season, which includes a $5 million roster bonus due next week.

2. Rivera has them close

They were in the playoffs two years ago. Not a fan but I do watch a lot of their games. I don’t get paying that for Wentz.

3. QFT...Frank Reich couldn't fix this guy

and he's just fragile physically and mentally IMO. Washington is such a bad organization. I'm a middle aged teacher from Michigan who KNOWS ya don't throw money at a guy like this. But somehow a billion dollar organization can't figure it out. Unreal.

4. Well he will be an improvement over who they had, but...

They’ll be right back to those guys after Wentz goes down.
