What happened to Nick Foles? QB suffers painful injury vs. Giants

Nick Foles started his first game of the season with the Indianapolis Colts in Week 17 as they faced the New York Giants. However, Foles found himself injured with under a minute left in the first half after a sack by defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux.

The Colts quarterback laid on the turf at MetLife Stadium as the cart came onto the field. It's unknown whether Foles will be back in the game. It was later disclosed that Foles injured his ribs.

The former Eagles quarterback threw for 81 yards and an interception before his exit from the game. Sam Ehlinger, in his second season with the Colts, replaced Foles under center. Matt Ryan, who started 12 games this season for Indianapolis, was inactive for the matchup.

The #Colts ruled out QB Nick Foles with a rib injury. Sam Ehlinger will take over in the second half.

Prior to starting this game, Nick Foles started last week versus the Los Angeles Chargers. He threw for 143 yards and an interception on 17 of 29 passes in the 20-3 loss to the Chargers.

Foles was signed by the Colts back in May as a veteran backup to Ryan. In his career, Foles has started 57 games for six NFL teams.

Going back to Foles' injury, something interesting happened as the Colts' medical team tended to him.
