Richardson Content to Be with Colts, Battle for Backup Quarterback Job
Richardson says he is focused on improving as the Colts weigh his future, with little trade interest and lingering concerns about his eyesight.
- Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson is competing for the backup role behind Daniel Jones at training camp, despite requesting a trade earlier this offseason.
- Former first-round pick Richardson requested a trade in February following a disastrous start to his career, which included a season-ending eye injury last year; six months later, no trade has materialized.
- Head coach Shane Steichen plans to feature Richardson and Riley Leonard in Thursday's preseason opener against the New England Patriots in Foxborough, with both players battling for the backup job.
- On Sunday, Richardson emphasized he has not recently discussed the trade request with his agent or Chris Ballard, saying he is focused on being the "best version of myself" for the team.
- Concerns regarding his vision and health persist among potential trade partners, though general manager Ballard previously stated Richardson is "in a good spot," and the team intends to keep him on the roster.
