The Washington Commanders will be without quarterback Carson Wentz for the next month or so due to a fractured ring finger.
NFL Network Insiders Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo reported Monday that Wentz is facing a recovery time of roughly 4-6 weeks and injured reserve is a consideration, per sources informed of the situation.
Wentz is set to undergo surgery on Monday after visiting with a hand specialist in Los Angeles, according to Rapoport.
The QB fractured the ring finger on his throwing hand during Thursday night’s 12-7 victory in Chicago. Wentz went 12-of-22 passing for 99 yards and a 66.3 passer rating in the win.
