Reports: Colts Agree to Let Qb Anthony Richardson Seek Trade
- On Thursday, the Indianapolis Colts granted permission for Anthony Richardson to seek a trade, ESPN's Stephen Holder and IndyStar reported, citing Richardson's agent Deiric Jackson and league sources.
- A combination of injuries and inconsistent play led the Colts to explore other quarterback options, as Daniel Jones, quarterback, won the 2025 starting job and the team appears poised to keep him.
- The quarterback fractured an orbital bone during an October pregame warmup and finished the season on injured reserve, appearing in only two games with 1 completion for 9 yards.
- Granting trade permission gives Anthony Richardson one season left on his rookie contract, with agent Deiric Jackson expected to seek a deal, offering a chance for a fresh start after three seasons.
- Drafted fourth overall in 2023, Richardson was cast as the Colts' first franchise quarterback since Andrew Luck, but his uneven play led to benching in 2025.
