Colts HC Shane Steichen told reporters that QB Anthony Richardson will play Sunday if he does not suffer any setbacks from his oblique injury.

Richardson was close to playing in Week 6 according to reports, so this was the hopeful outcome heading into Week 7. The Colts are in an early game against the Dolphins so owners will have plenty of time to make adjustments if for some reason there is a setback. But for now, Richardson looks good to go.

Shane Steichen ruling just one #Colts player OUT for Sunday:

-Jonathan Taylor (ankle)

Michael Pittman Jr. (back) is feeling really good, per Steichen.

Anthony Richardson will be a game-time decision.

It hadn't been looking good for Taylor throughout the week, so maybe the bigger news is that we don't have any confirmation about Richardson's status, which has a huge impact on lineup decisions.

There are a lot of moving parts here, but we're assuming Pittman won't play and that Richardson *will*, which gives a slight boost to Josh Downs and Alec Pierce, who should be considered WR3s with upside for more.

Colts QB Anthony Richardson (oblique) was a full participant in today’s practice and is on track to return to the lineup on Sunday at Tennessee.

The boost we saw to all of the receivers due to the pass-happy offense under Flacco is slightly downgraded now that Richardson is back, though Michael Pittman Jr. is out for the short-term, so maybe Alec Pierce, Josh Downs, and Adonai Mitchell see a boost anyways. Richardson has a less-than-ideal matchup this week, so it may be best to give him a week, depending on your other options.

There’s no quarterback controversy in Indianapolis.

Joe Flacco has completed 49-of-70 passes for 527 yards and five touchdowns since Anthony Richardson injured his oblique early in a Week Four win over the Steelers, but head coach Shane Steichen made it clear on Monday that the team is going to put Richardson back in the lineup once he’s medically cleared.

“He is our starting quarterback,” Steichen said, via Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan.

Richardson was a limited participant in practice last week, the story said. This Wednesday will bring word on how much he’s doing at practice as the team moves toward their Week 6 trip to Tennessee the story added.

Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson left a game with an injury for the fourth time in his eight NFL starts, but it doesn’t sound like this hip issue or Richardson’s history is a source of great concern for the team.

The story went on to say that Richardson said after Sunday’s win over the Steelers that he thought he avoided a serious injury, but would be going for an MRI. On Monday, head coach Shane Steichen said that Richardson’s read appears to be correct and that the team isn’t worried about Richardson being too much of an injury risk, according to the story. We'll have to monitor the injury this week in practice ,as there was no word about his status for Week 5. The ageless Flacco would get the start if Richardson can't go.

Colts GM Chris Ballard told reporters that QB Anthony Richardson will be a full go during training camp. “I'm not expecting any limitations right now,” Ballard said.

We're not expecting anything to keep Richardson off the field come Week 1, making him a possible top-5 QB option in fantasy football.

Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson was held out of Thursday's final offseason practice with right shoulder soreness, but the second-year player and coach Shane Steichen both insisted the decision was purely precautionary.

Richardson sustained an AC joint sprain last season that required season-ending surgery, but he recovered quickly and has been the Colts' starting quarterback throughout this spring's workouts. He was seen with trainers midway through Wednesday's practice, addressing the shoulder before returning to the lineup briefly and then giving way to backup Joe Flacco in the final period.

Richardson began throwing a few months ago, so this isn't a huge concern for just a single day. We'll keep an eye on the situation but don't believe it's going to keep him out of Week 1 action.

Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters after Sunday's win over the Jaguars that quarterback Joe Flacco will be the starting quarterback for the rest of the season.

Not a bad move as Flacco has keep the offense clicking and had a very good day in the big win over Jacksonville. Flacco went 26 of 45 for 311 yards with three touchdown passes in the 31-27 win. Cleveland now sits alone atop the AFC wild card standings at 8-5. FYI, Flacco is doing this at 38 years old. Unfortunately, the Browns have already played both games against the Ravens. However, Flacco will get to face one of his former teams when the Browns host the Jets in Week 17. The Browns finish with the Bears, Texans, Jets and Bengals. Two more wins should be enough to get Cleveland into the playoffs.

The Browns elevated QB Joe Flacco from the practice squad and waived QB PJ Walker.

The Browns have yet to name a starter for Sunday against the Jaguars -- Dorian Thompson-Robinson is working his way back from a concussion -- but the elevation and waiving of Walker seem to indicate Flacco may get his second straight start for the Browns. Flacco went 23/44 for 254 yards with two touchdowns and one interception in Cleveland's 36-19 loss last week to the Rams. Flacco is QB21 on our board this week.

Browns coach Kevin Stefanski tells reporters that Dorian Thompson-Robinson is out of the concussion protocol and he won't name a starter. Joe Flacco, obviously, would be the other option.

We should figure that Flacco gets the Week 14 start after how —relatively—well he moved the offense last week, but it looks like it's still up in the air as of Friday afternoon.
