Anthony Richardson's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson has struggled as a passer early on in the season. Richardson saw his struggles continue on Sunday when he completed 41.7 percent of his passes for 129 yards in the win over the Miami Dolphins. Despite his struggles, head coach Shane Steichen is showing faith in his young-signal caller and even said he needs to put Richardson in better positions to succeed. In parts of five games, Richardson has thrown for 783 yards with three touchdowns and six interceptions. The Colts are sticking with Richardson, but fantasy managers might want to look for another viable option given his struggles.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson completed ten of his 24 passing attempts for 129 yards in the team's 16-10 win over the Miami Dolphins, throwing no touchdowns and no interceptions. Richardson found some success on the ground, running the ball 14 times for a team-high 56 yards, but did lose a fumble in the red zone in the first half. Richardson has struggled to put up big numbers through the air this season and hasn't seen incredibly high numbers on the ground to help compensate from a fantasy perspective. Fantasy managers can view Richardson as a low-end QB1 option in Week 8 when the Colts visit the Houston Texans.

Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen said that quarterback Anthony Richardson (oblique) will start on Sunday against the Miami Dolphins in Week 7. Richardson suffered an oblique injury in the Week 4 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers and missed the last two games as a result. However, the 22-year-old former first-rounder practiced in full all week and has been cleared to return to action this weekend. Veteran Joe Flacco ran the offense better than Richardson in his two games as the starter, but Indy is sticking with Richardson now that he's fully healthy. The young and inexperienced signal-caller has elite rushing upside but remains incomplete as a passer and threw six interceptions and only three touchdowns in his first four games this year. Against Miami, fantasy managers should treat him as a low-end QB1/high-end QB2 in his return.
