Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson gave honest thoughts about his play against the Denver Broncos.
. It had been 309 days since Richardson last played in that building when a sprained AC joint in his throwing shoulder cut his rookie season drastically short. Months of rehab and practice followed to prepare Richardson for this moment.
“Just trying to manage the game, just take what the defense gave me," Richardson admitted. "Felt like there were a few plays we left out there, but it’s all good. We still worked on chemistry and stuff and just building it as an offense.”The box score does not show a pretty showing from Richardson, and the quarterback did not seem thrilled with his performance after the game.
The pressure helped force a three-and-out on the first drive. Richardson and the Colts' offense made a little headway on the second drive, as Richardson diagnosed the blitz and made a quick throw to Alie-Cox for a chunk play. It may not have looked like much, but it showed Richardson's ability to make adjustments and learn in-game, a valuable trait at the quarterback position.
