INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Former NFL quarterback and sports analyst Mark Sanchez isn’t expected to return to the Fox Sports NFL booth anytime soon.
The 38-year-old Sanchez will miss his third straight week of games on Sunday as he continues to recover after police said he was stabbed during a fight with a truck driver outside an Indianapolis hotel on Oct. 4.
Sanchez faces a felony battery charge, along with several misdemeanor charges, for what prosecutors have said was a fight over parking. Sanchez and Fox Sports also face a civil lawsuit filed by 69-year-old Perry Tole.
A preliminary hearing in the case is scheduled for Wednesday in Marion County court.
