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.

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.

Another day, another Week 1 starting quarterback has been named.

According to NFL Media, Daniel Jones has gotten the nod over Anthony Richardson.

As the story points out, it's a stunning move considering the investment the Colts put into Richardson. The competition was reportedly close, but still doesn't seem like good news for Richardson's future in Indy. However, the door probably isn't closed for a change at some point, given the struggles Jones had to end his career with the Giants. Our own John Paulsen reminds us, however, that Jones has had a couple of competent seasons. He threw 24 touchdowns versus 12 picks as a rookie, and had a 15:5 touchdown-to-interception ratio back in 2022 when he went 9-6-1 as the Giants' starter. Given Jones’s ability to run the ball, he’s still an intriguing value pick. Any sort of recovery in his passing numbers would vault him into the QB2 conversation.

The Colts held their 13th and final training camp practice at Grand Park on Thursday, bringing to a close this chapter of their competition between Daniel Jones and Anthony Richardson Sr.

The book, however, does not have an ending yet.

"We'll work through that," head coach Shane Steichen said of a decision on the Colts' Week 1 starting quarterback. "We had today, we got a preseason game (Saturday), we have some practices next week and we'll work through that. I don't have an exact timetable on it, but sooner rather than later would be nice."

Hopefully the "sooner" means next week, but there's no way of knowing at this point. It seems like Richardson has the slight edge here, and he would be instantly startable as a fantasy asset, but the raw targets would go down across the board. If Jones wins the job, he'll be a fringe QB2/3.

Colts head coach Shane Steichen confirmed Sunday that quarterback Daniel Jones will start the second preseason game against the Packers and play a few series and Anthony Richardson will replace him and play the rest of the first half.

Richardson returned to practice Saturday after dislocating his pinky in Thursday’s preseason opener against the Ravens. He’ll get the “bulk of the work” Saturday according to Steichen. The Colts want to get more of a look at Richardson after the injury cut his reps short in Week 1, giving Jones more reps in the first game. Neither quarterback has separated himself from the other with less than a month before the season starts. Saturday may bring us closer to finding the answer in Indianapolis.

Colts QB Anthony Richardson, who dislocated his pinky last night, checked out fine and is considered day-to-day. Good news after a night cut short.

Positive result for Richardson here, and the murky Colts QB situation gets even more murky. The initial pictures of his finger didn't look great, so we'll see how quickly he can return to practice. Both he and Jones can be safely avoided for now in all but the deepest of leagues, but Richardson has a lot of fantasy value if we ever get clearance that he's the Week 1 starter.

It looked to be a dislocated finger on his throwing hand, but that's only speculation at this point. Hopefully we'll know more after the game or in the morning. Daniel Jones would be the starter if Richardson misses any time.

Anthony Richardson will start Thursday’s game against the Ravens, according to Shane Steichen. Daniel Jones will start Week 2 vs Green Bay.

It's tough to tell just how much this means for the Richardson vs. Jones battle going on in camp, but one almost has to think Richardson has a leg up, and now needs to show something to keep things that way.

Not to speculate, but a theory I’ve come around to:

I see the likeliest move being AR [Anthony Richardson] getting the job unless and until Daniel Jones outshines him, which isn’t happening as of now. Can always go to Jones later in the case of underperformance or injury.

In a training camp report, Holder mentions that "there does not appear to be a clear leader so far in the Colts' quarterback battle," however, he does note that Richardson has been more accurate on short/intermediate throws. If ARich wins the job outright, we should be shooting him up rankings, particularly on a week-to-week scenario; we've seen his legs give him consistent top-10 finishes, even if it's next to impossible to project him for a full season of starts.

There's still time for 2023 first-round pick Anthony Richardson to prove he's capable of being a QB1 in the NFL, Colts owner and CEO Carlie Irsay-Gordon said Monday.

It's not a new topic for Irsay-Gordon -- far from it -- but she said she'd like to bring "urgency" to all sides of the conversation around the No. 4 pick in the 2023 draft. That's why Richardson will arrive to training camp in a competition with Daniel Jones, the sixth pick in the 2019 draft with the New York Giants.

"Where he is in his career and in his deal as a rookie, we still have time," Irsay-Gordon said in a wide-ranging interview with Colts.com.

"He still has time to prove it. ... Bring a sense of urgency. And nothing brings a sense of urgency more than competition."

It's been a quick fall for Richardson since 2023. As the story said, injuries and availability have been a big issue. While Richardson was limited in the offseason by his shoulder injury, GM Chris Ballard said there are no restrictions for the quarterback entering this year's training camp, according to the story. Accuracy was another issue, the story pointed out. He had a league-low 47.7 completion percentage last season.

Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr. is believed to have recovered from his recent right shoulder setback as the team prepares to report for training camp next week.

Richardson, who underwent season-ending surgery to repair an AC joint sprain in his throwing shoulder during the 2023 season, missed the final two weeks of the team's offseason practices in June after experiencing soreness in that shoulder.

Looks like we've got an old-fashioned QB battle on our hands, fantasy enthusiasts. Holder continues to note that Richardson will likely be evaluated next week and could be on a "pitch count" to avoid fatigue. If Richardson gets the nod to start most of the games this season, it will likely come with a shrinking target count for the Colts' pass-catchers, but he has proven to be a valuable fantasy asset due to his rushing. He is still a stay-away until deep in drafts, as we truly have no way of knowing how many games he can/will be allowed to play in.
