Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen has announced that Anthony Richardson will replace Daniel Jones as the team's starting quarterback, according to a report by Joel A. Erickson of the Indianapolis Star published Sunday.
The move elevates Richardson, the No. 4 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, back into the starting role after Jones had taken over following Richardson's injury-shortened rookie season. Richardson appeared in four games as a rookie before a shoulder injury ended his season.
Jones, signed as a free agent in the offseason, started the first eight games of the 2026 campaign. The Colts enter their bye week with a 4-5 record.
