Anthony Richardson prepares for potential starting role with the Colts

The Indianapolis Colts begin the season with Daniel Jones as the starting quarterback, though Anthony Richardson remains on standby. Following an injury to Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold during the season opener, the vulnerability of starting signal-callers has become a focal point for backups league-wide. Darnold left the field after five plays due to a hip injury, prompting Drew Lock to lead the Seahawks to a victory. Richardson is currently tasked with remaining prepared to assume duties should Jones suffer an injury. While the organization prefers that Jones remains healthy, the speed at which depth charts can shift has intensified the focus on Richardson's readiness. The Colts continue their season schedule as Richardson monitors the physical status of the starter.
