The Commanders seem to have added a Band-Aid to their quarterback situation (again), this time trading for Colts quarterback Carson Wentz in exchange for two, third-round picks. Reports indicate that one pick can work its way to a second-rounder, should Wentz hit a certain snap percentage in 2022.The NFC East homecoming for Wentz will likely give him his last and best opportunity to stick as Drew Beakey Jersey  an NFL starter after a single season in Indianapolis with the Colts proved to be fruitle s.MORE:At the time, the trade for Wentz seemed like a low-risk, high-reward move for the Colts, even with a conditional first-round pick attached. Now, under a year since the move was made, the Colts are back on the QB Tyreic Martin Jersey  market, looking for their sixth quarterback in as many seasons.Colts' Week 1 starting QB by year:2016: Andrew Luck2017: Scott Tolzien2018: Andrew Luck2019: Jacoby Bri sett2020: Philip Rivers2021: Carson Wentz2022: TBDFor the 6th straight season, Indy won't have the same starting QB in Week 1 as it did the year before. Field Yates (@FieldYates) Here's why it was ill-fated:While Wentz posted fine returns as a starter  he threw for 3,563 yards, 27 touchdowns and seven interceptions in 17 games  his i sues in the locker room were more at play than his production.The Athletic's Zak Keefer reports that Wentz's tenure with the Colts was doomed to fail from the start. , and that there were three Brian Papazian Jersey  main factors in the front office losing trust in him as their future:His lack of strong leadership skillsHis "resistance" to hard coachingHis mercurial play styleWentz's intangibles  or lack thereof  coupled with his uneven season with the Colts, eventually led to the trade. Those, coupled with Wentz's wilting in the limelight in tough spots, made the decision easy for the team to move C.J. Cole Jersey  on.Indianapolis' originally made the deal partly due to the quarterback's familiarity and comfort with former Eagles QB coach and OC Frank Reich, who oversaw Wentz's early years in Philly, getting the most out of the quarterback.Injuries and inconsistencies both eventually paved the way for the Eagles to part ways with the pa ser. Coincidentally, part of the reason that the Eagles traded Wentz in the first place dealt  Kiondre Thomas Jersey with the same i sues that The Athletic's report detailed.Now, the Colts are without a QB  again  and this time, there's no quick or easy solution on the horizon.
