One thing modified since Monday.
After saying that Joe Flacco would stay the workforce’s starter earlier within the week, Colts head coach Shane Steichen stated on Wednesday that it as a substitute will probably be Anthony Richardson getting the nod towards the Jets on Sunday and for the remainder of the season.
The Colts benched Richardson two weeks in the past because the workforce had struggled to maneuver the ball and after the 22-year-old had admitted to pulling himself out a sport towards the Texans for one play as a result of he was “tired.”
Flacco, although, was unable to search out the magic that he displayed final season when he led the Browns to a stunning playoff run.
The Colts misplaced back-to-back video games to the Vikings and Payments with Flacco throwing for 451 yards, two touchdowns and 4 interceptions.
“Joe is a veteran guy, like I’ve said,” Steichen stated on Monday earlier than his about-face. “He’s had two video games that he’d need again, however he goes on the market and throws some good passes.
“The interceptions, there’s three of those, there’s two he’d want back. Again, you stick with it, you grind through it, the process of this whole thing really is a process. We’re going through the process, and right now, Joe’s still our guy.”
Now, Anthony is the man once more because the Colts look to remain within the playoff race with their younger quarterback.
