Oct 16, 2023

Colts QB Anthony Richardson could opt for season-ending shoulder surgery, and coach Shane Steichen was asked whether the Colts will take a longer-term view of their franchise quarterback.

“Yeah, that makes sense,’’ Steichen said, via Mike Chappell of Fox 59. “It is a priority. Obviously, we want to do what’s best for him and this organization moving forward. Like I said, we will make the decision when the time is right. We’re still evaluating that process.’’

Richardson was diagnosed with a grade 3 sprain to the AC joint in his right shoulder after being injured eight days ago. Owner Jim Irsay, General Manager Chris Ballard, Steichen and the medical staff will consult with Richardson and his representation when it comes time to make the decision, the story said.

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown has received final clearance to practice, paving the way for him to play before the regular season ends.

Brown, who is recovering from surgery to repair his SC joint, should have his window opened Friday or Monday. The team will be cautious.

Fantasy Impact:

If Brown were cleared by Week 17, he would be incredibly tough to start in pretty much any sort of fantasy league with Championships on the line. However, he could be an interesting click for Playoff-only leagues if he can ramp up in time.

For a second straight day today, Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III didn’t practice due to his calf injury.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

Looks like things should be cleared out for Charbonnet once again in what could be a very close game against the Packers. If Walker misses Week 15, fire Charbs up as a high-end RB2.
