Anthony Richardson played his first game for the Indianapolis Colts as the No.4 overall pick from the 2023 NFL Draft prepares for his rookie season in the league
New Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson has played his first game for the NFL franchise.
The Colts drafted Richardson with the No.4 overall pick in April’s 2023 NFL Draft. The 21-year-old is now preparing for his rookie year in the NFL, and could go on to be the starter for the AFC South franchise.
Richardson will be competing with Gardner Minshew and Sam Ehlinger for the starting quarterback spot in the Colts roster. The unofficial depth chart released by the Colts on August 8 confirmed that Richardson and Gardner were both in consideration to be the starter.
In preparation for the new season, the Colts faced the Buffalo Bills in their first pre-season game of the summer. The Colts lost 23-19, but Richardson still managed to put in a solid performance.
