Colts QB Anthony Richardson, agent unsure of future

Aug 19, 2025

With Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr.'s future in flux following Tuesday's decision to name Daniel Jones the team's starting quarterback, Richardson's agent reacted with disappointment in the move and said he's unsure of his client's future with the club.

The agent, Deiric Jackson, stopped short of demanding a trade, but he wondered aloud whether coach Shane Steichen's quarterback decision might have been predetermined when the Colts signed Jones in March to a one-year, $14 million contract.

"We have a lot to discuss," Jackson told ESPN of his impending conversations with the Colts.

Fantasy Impact:

Jackson said he believes Tuesday's decision and some previous situations involving Richardson have damaged the team's credibility, according to the story. As the story pointed out, Richardson was benched for two games last season, with Steichen saying at the time that Richardson needed to improve his game preparation. The team quickly reinserted the 2023 No. 4 draft pick into the starting lineup after suffering two straight losses with veteran Joe Flacco under center. The Colts say, according to the story, that Richardson still has a future with the team.

Colts Beat: TE Tyler Warren living up to hype

ESPN

6 minutes ago

Tyler Warren was described by the Colts' brass as an "easy" selection at 14th overall. And nothing that's happened in the intervening months between the draft and now suggests they were wrong.

Fantasy Impact:

The story said Warren has displayed sure hands and physical running after the catch, as well as developing as a blocker, and that the Colts could not be more pleased with their pick. The story added members of the team think Warren's overall toughness and physicality will set a tone for the team this coming season. The story finally added we should look for the Colts to give Warren plays that give him an opportunity to gain yards after the catch. The Colts projected Warren to be a player who would thrive in the open field, and those projections are proving true, the story said. Rookie TEs usually come with risks, or they used to, but we already have Warren ranked 10th among our TEs, making him a low-end TE1 who can be had in the middle of the ninth round.

Commanders Beat: RB Austin Ekeler remains key part of offense

The Athletic

Veteran Austin Ekeler remains a key piece of the offense and special teams as Washington’s lead kick returner.

Fantasy Impact:

The Commanders RB room has been a hot topic this week and it's only Tuesday. Robinson was held out of Monday night's preseason game amid trade rumors. The story discussed how an AFC GM said the team made Robinson available last year already. Rodriguez had a big run in the Monday night game and rookie sensation Croskey-Merritt had a long TD run as well. The story called McNichols the team's best blocking back. The story didn't mention how much of a role Ekeler would have in the offense, but needless to say it's a crowded RB room right now, with all four of those backs expected to make the team. If the Commanders do trade Robinson, this situation will need to sort itself out. But right now, Rodriguez and JCM are popular pickups in leagues that already had their drafts.

Jeremy McNichols re-signed in the offseason on a one-year deal, giving offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury another versatile option who is also the team’s best blocking back. (His blitz pickups last season warranted more headlines.)

Harbaugh: WR Ladd McConkey 'has become uncoverable' one-on-one

The Athletic

yesterday · 10:08 PM EDT

Coach Jim Harbaugh said earlier this camp that Ladd McConkey has become “uncoverable” in one-on-one situations. Monday featured example after example of that.

Related players: Tre’ Harris, KeAndre Lambert-Smith, Keenan Allen

Fantasy Impact:

The story has high praise for McConkey and his potential for 2025. It said the passing offense is going to flow through McConkey this year and even with the return of Allen to the Bolts, it's McConkey's room. The story also believes McConkey is poised to reach even greater heights in his second season. We currently rank McConkey 12th among our WRs and he looks to be available in the early third round of drafts so far this summer.
