In a pivotal preseason matchup, Anthony Richardson's dislocated pinky on his throwing hand has become the headline, casting doubt on his availability for the Indianapolis Colts. Analysts highlight Richardson's failure to recognize a free rusher, leading to the injury, which raises concerns about his preparedness and decision-making. As the Colts enter a critical phase, with Daniel Jones emerging as the likely starter, the organization faces pressure to maximize their options.

Richardson's ongoing injury problems since joining the league have hindered his development, leaving fans to ponder the missed opportunities of his potential. With limited preseason games left, the Colts may need to pivot quickly, especially given the growing fan excitement around rookie Riley Leonard. Insights from the preseason indicate that while Tyler Warren showed promise, the overall quarterback situation remains precarious for Indianapolis.
