Anthony Richardson, the Colts quarterback, was seen taking snaps during team drills on Thursday. Although he is right-handed and recovering from right shoulder surgery, Richardson was seen handing off the ball or throwing it with his left hand. This change in routine sparked conversations among those at practice as Richardson discussed his ongoing soreness and the medical staff’s recommendation for him to take a day off.
Richardson admitted to experiencing soreness at various points during the offseason but described the overall experience as “smooth sailing.” Despite his reluctance to sit out, Richardson acknowledged the importance of listening to the trainers for the sake of his health. Head coach Shane Steichen echoed Richardson’s sentiments and assured that the quarterback would be able to play if there was a game this weekend.
As there is no immediate game scheduled, the team is hoping that Richardson’s soreness will not pose a significant issue as time goes on. The focus is on ensuring Richardson’s health and readiness for the upcoming contests ahead.
