Colts' Anthony Richardson facing vision concerns impacting his future
Summary

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson's future in the NFL is uncertain due to ongoing vision concerns. Following a freak accident last year that resulted in a fractured orbital bone, teams are wary about his eyesight. Colts general manager Chris Ballard and head coach Shane Steichen previously stated Richardson was in a good condition and cleared to play. However, Richardson himself noted issues taking snaps during training camp, attributing them to switching centers rather than vision problems. Richardson had sought permission to seek a trade earlier this year, but no trade has materialized as of now.
