Sam Ehlinger Fantasy

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Sam Ehlinger has surprisingly looked good during the preseason. He tossed two touchdowns during the preseason opener, but looked even better on Saturday. The 23-year-old completed 9-of-11 passing attempts with 136 passing yards and two touchdowns in the loss to the Detroit Lions. Earlier in the offseason there were rumors that Ehlinger might have a shot at the starting gig. However, Ehlinger is now competing for the backup spot with Matt Ryan in town. Ehlinger has certainly made a strong case for the backup gig, but he won't have fantasy value with Ryan healthy.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Sam Ehlinger put together a fairly solid performance during Saturday's preseason matchup against the Buffalo Bills. The 23-year-old completed 10-of-11 passing attempts for 88 yards and two touchdowns in the loss. Earlier this offseason, there were some rumors that Ehlinger could be the starter for the Colts. Those reports are now long gone with Matt Ryan in town. It appears Ehlinger will be battling with Nick Foles for the backup gig in Indy. Neither player is expected to be relevant in fantasy leagues with Ryan healthy.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Sam Ehlinger suddenly became the top quarterback on the team's depth chart this week, following the trade of starter Carson Wentz to the Washington Commanders. James Morgan is the only other quarterback currently rostered by the team. While the Colts will certainly add another quarterback to join Ehlinger and Morgan, there's speculation that Ehlinger will get a solid look as a starting option for the team. In an article for The Athletic on Wednesday, Zak Keefer reported that a source suggested that even as the Colts look to add another quarterback, we shouldn't rule out Ehlinger "getting a chance at the starting job." The 23-year-old Ehlinger was a sixth-round pick out of Texas last year. He barely saw the field as a rookie and will certainly need a strong offseason to earn the team's support as a starting option.
