Quarterback Carson Wentz starts for Indianapolis Colts despite ankle injuries

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Carson Wentz, who injured both ankles in Week 2, is active and started Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans.

Wentz practiced Friday for the first time this week and will be relied upon Sunday as the Colts search for their first win. While heavily taped, he moved pretty well during the portion of practice open to the media.

In his first season with Indianapolis, Wentz is 45-of-69 for 498 yards and three touchdowns with an interception. The most alarming stat with Wentz is that he has been sacked six times and hit an additional 21 times in the Colts' two losses.

The backup plan for Sunday is still unknown, be it Jacob Eason or Brett Hundley under center.

Wentz has played a full season only twice since entering the NFL as the No. 2 overall draft pick in 2016.
