Carson Wentz is out indefinitely with a hairline fracture in his ribs.

The Philadelphia Eagles moved up to draft Wentz with the second overall pick.

"Carson felt some discomfort and soreness as we began this morning's practice. We decided to limit him throughout the remainder of practice and, as a precaution, sent him for a CT scan after practice. The scan revealed a hairline fracture in his ribs," Doug Pederson said in a statement. "We do not know an exact timetable for his return, but we hope to have him back before the end of the preseason."

Wentz remained in the game after the hit.

"I think it was the next-to-the-last play of the game," Pederson told reporters prior to the injury announcement. "He got hit pretty hard on the right side, stayed down on the ground for a while. [He's] just sore. Bothered him to throw a little bit."

Wentz completed 12 of 24 passes for 89 yards in Philadelphia's preseason opener.
