Colts open 21-day practice window for QB Anthony Richardson

Colts Shane Steichen: Team opening 21-day practice window for Anthony Richardson Sr. this week.

Related Players: Philip Rivers, Riley Leonard

Fantasy Impact:

This opens the possibility that we could see Richardson, potentially in Week 18. If/when the Colts are eliminated from the playoffs, we could assume that Rivers will no longer be taking snaps, and if Richardson logs a full game (however unlikely), he would be an interesting DFS option in the final week of the regular season.

Colts HC Shane Steichen told reporters that Philip Rivers will start again next Monday night against the San Francisco 49ers.

Related players: Anthony Richardson, Riley Leonard

Fantasy Impact:

We reported earlier today Richardson has been cleared to practice, but the team hasn't opened his 21-day window. But even if they do, the team will roll with Rivers in Week 16.

Colts QB Anthony Richardson (orbital bone) cleared to resume activities

Dec 15, 2025 · 1:23 PM EST

The Colts coaxed Philip Rivers out of retirement last week and they may be getting another one of their former starting quarterbacks back on the practice field soon.

According to multiple reports, Anthony Richardson has been cleared to resume football activities. Richardson has been out since fracturing an orbital bone while working out ahead of Indianapolis’ Week 6 game against the Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact:

The Colts have not formally designated Richardson for return from injured reserve at this point and no word from the team if they plan to do so this week, but that would be a necessary step to get him back into practice, the story went on to say. Of course, that move creates a 21-day window for Richardson to practice with the team.

Colts not sure if QB Anthony Richardson (orbital fracture) will return this season

With Colts starting quarterback Daniel Jones out for the season after tearing an Achilles tendon on Sunday, the next question becomes whether Anthony Richardson will be able to step in.

Per a source with knowledge of the situation, Richardson — who suffered an orbital fracture prior to the Week 6 game against the Cardinals — has not been cleared to return. Moreover, the Colts don’t know when or if he’ll be cleared at any point in 2025.

Related players: Riley Leonard, Brett Rypien

Fantasy Impact:

Richardson’s injury was the result of a freak accident with an exercise band. With Richardson's status unknown, it looks like Leonard will get the start. Rypien is on the practice squad, according to the story. On Sunday, the emergency option was tight end Tyler Warren, the story went on to say.
