Colts QB Anthony Richardson "won't be a better quarterback" than Minshew by Week 1
Per beat writer Boyd, "Richardson has a lot of growing to do, and while Gardner Minshew was brought in to help mentor him, it’s not like Minshew is going to lie down and give the rookie the starting job. Richardson must show strides with his grasp of the playbook, throwing mechanics and leadership to garner more first-team reps throughout the summer. My belief is that Richardson won’t be a better quarterback than Minshew, a five-year vet, by Week 1. "
Boyd would go on to say that Anthony Richardson does have an out, and that would include receiving more first-team reps than Minshew until the Colts "finally pull the trigger and name him the starter." This doesn't mean that Richardson won't see action as a rookie, just that it doesn't seem likely that he gets the entire 2023 season to himself.
