Sam Ehlinger finished their Week 18 game against the Houston Texans with 23 completions for 209 yards and two touchdowns. In the first quarter, he found receiver
Michael Pittman Jr. via a one-yard pass to put the Colts on the board. The former Texas standout also connected with tight end
Mo Alie-Cox to gain the lead in the fourth quarter. However, he also threw two interceptions, including one converted into a 39-yard touchdown return by Jonathan Greenard. The former sixth-round draft pick also had five carries for 21 yards. He is still looking for his victory as an NFL starter, a result that has evaded him after three tries. Ehlinger completed 63.4 percent of his throws in four games this year for 573 yards, three touchdowns and three picks. His fate in 2023 will heavily rely on what the Colts want to do at his position.

Nick Foles (ribs) will not play against the Houston Texans in Week 18. Interim head coach Jeff Saturday said Foles is still sore after taking a brutal hit against the New York Giants in the Week 17 loss.
Sam Ehlinger will make his third start of the season, with
Matt Ryan serving as his backup. Ehlinger has completed 41 of his 66 passing attempts for 364 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. He remains off the fantasy radar in single-QB leagues in Week 18.

Sam Ehlinger is inactive for Sunday's meeting with the Cowboys. Jeff Saturday had indicated earlier in the week he wanted to make a change to the depth chart. That's exactly what he did, as now
Nick Foles will serve as
Matt Ryan's backup. Ehlinger has played two games in 2022-23, throwing for 304 yards and an interception while completing just 61.5% of his throws. For those who still have the 24-year-old on their fantasy roster, it doesn't appear he'll be back under center anytime soon, as Foles is likely the next in line if Ryan continues to underperform offensively.
