Colts QB Anthony Richardson hasn't finished his first two career games because of injury. How does he balance aggression and protection?
as Richardson reached the end zone on his second rushing touchdown. He played two more series before self-reporting symptoms and sitting out the rest of the game.. He didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday as he works through the NFL's concussion protocol.There are certainly plays where Richardson could have protected himself. Instead of lowering his shoulder on the play that knocked him out of the Jaguars game, the wise move would have been to slide.
Like early in the second quarter of Week 1 against Jacksonville, with Indianapolis facing a first-and-10 at the Jaguars' 25. He executed a designed run to the left, and with Cisco quickly closing downhill, Richardson took the three yards he could get before going out of bounds. The next possession, on a first-and-10 in plus territory at the Jaguars' 48, he scrambled to the right side and again got what he could get, four yards, before safetycould close in.
But Richardson's physicality is also something the Colts must understand about their hopeful franchise quarterback; how and when they should adjust accordingly. Because Richardson will do whatever it takes to win.
