Carson Wentz is now a member of the Washington Commanders and Darius Leonard’s got jokes!
On Wednesday, in the aftermath of the puzzling trade that sent Wentz from the Indianapolis Colts to the Commanders, Leonard posted his congratulations to his former quarterback, along with a funny jab at his own team. You see, the Colts haven’t had a stable quarterback situation in some time, only becoming rockier when Andrew Luck retired suddenly before the 2019 season.
Now, with Wentz moving on after a pretty, uh, rough year, Indianapolis will be searching for its fifth starting quarterback in five years, something Leonard poked fun at in his goodbye tweet to his former QB.
Here we go again! About to be 5 years with the Colts and 5 different QBs! Thank you Carson for everything this year my guy! Wish you nothing but the best!

In case you were wondering who the Colts previous starters were these last few years, here they are:
- 2018: Andrew Luck
- 2019: Jacoby Brissett/Brian Hoyer
- 2020: Philip Rivers
- 2021: Carson Wentz
- 2022: ???
Yeah… that’s quite rough.
