Former NFL quarterback and Fox Sports analyst Mark Sanchez was detained in Indianapolis after three misdemeanors following a brutal overnight stabbing attack on Saturday, leading to hospitalisation and another man being injured.
On Saturday October 4, 2025, the tragic incident occurred at nearly 12:30 a.m. near the Indiana Statehouse, where an argument heightened into a fight in an alley.
The other man involved also sustained severe injuries and was immediately rushed to the hospital for treatment and shortly got released.
However, details regarding Sanchezâs condition remain under wraps.
On October 5, 2025, Sanchez had traveled to Indianapolis to call the Colts-Raiders game at Lucas Oil Stadium.
Fox Sports later confirmed Brady Quinn would supersede him. âOur thoughts and prayers are with Mark,â the network stated and urged for privacy.
Bloodstains were clearly visible on the sidewalk near Loughmillerâs Pub & Eatery and Pronta Pizzeria later that day., though businesses remained open.
Sanchez, a standout at USC, was drafted fifth overall by the New York Jets in 2009.
Mark Sanchez had a successful career and accomplished several achievements after playing for multiple teams before announcing his retirement in 2019 and later he joined Fox Sports as an analyst in 2021.
