Colts' Anthony Richardson officially in concussion protocol
Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen did not provide an update on starting quarterback Anthony Richardson (concussion protocol) after Sunday's Week 2 win over the Houston Texans.
What It Means:
Richardson suffered a concussion on his second rushing touchdown in the Colts' Week 2 win and is now in the concussion protocol as the team prepares for their Week 3 matchup with the Baltimore Ravens. If he is unable to clear the protocol before Sunday, expect the Colts to have Gardner Minshew make the start.
Richardson is already playing like one of the premiere rushing quarterbacks in the league through two weeks of NFL action and has shown an ability to keep the Colts' offense moving while he grows and adapts to the competition. If he does suit up in Week 3, he could project as a top 12 option at the quarterback position even in a tough matchup.
