Summary
Anthony Richardson Sr. stunned the NFL world by snagging the Colts’ backup QB spot over Riley Leonard, defying expectations after three underwhelming seasons since his 2023 fourth-overall draft fall. Leonard’s preseason struggles—overwhelmed looks and shaky play—opened the door for Richardson, who delivered a stellar showing: 63.6% completion, 249 yards, 1 INT, 68 rushing yards, and a TD. With Daniel Jones’s injury history (averaging nearly 4 missed games/year since 2019) making him a risky long-term bet, Richardson’s snaps could be his golden ticket—a potential audition to impress teams and secure his next contract before hitting free agency in 2027.
