The Colts got some good news on Friday, as quarterback Anthony Richardson cleared the concussion protocol and is expected to start against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday.
Richardson missed the Colts' Week 3 win over the Baltimore Ravens after suffering a concussion in Week 2. He was sacked and his head hit the turf hard on his second touchdown run of the game.
Richardson was on track to play this week after practicing in full all week. He showed extraordinary potential in the first five quarters of his NFL career, making on-target throws and providing dynamic ability with his legs.
The Colts' offense struggled without Richardson in Week 3, scoring just 20 points against the Ravens. Richardson's return should give the Colts a boost on offense and make them a more dangerous team.
What to expect from Richardson this week
Richardson will be facing a Rams defense that is ranked 26th in the NFL in passing yards allowed per game. The Rams have also struggled to generate pressure on the quarterback, ranking 28th in the NFL in sacks.
Richardson should have a good opportunity to put up big numbers against the Rams' defense. He has a strong arm and is accurate with the ball. He is also a threat to run with the ball, which can make him difficult to defend.
Colts' playoff chances improve with Richardson's return
The Colts are currently 2-1 and in second place in the AFC South division. Richardson's return should give the Colts a better chance of winning the division and making the playoffs.
The Colts have a talented roster, but they need their quarterback to play well in order to be successful. Richardson has the potential to be a star quarterback, and his return is a big boost for the Colts.
Conclusion
The Colts are excited to have Richardson back under center. He is a talented quarterback with a lot of potential. Richardson's return should give the Colts a boost on offense and make them a more dangerous team.
