Overview

• Richardson left Thursday night’s game against Baltimore after dislocating the pinkie on his throwing hand in the second possession following a hit by Ravens defensive end David Ojabo.
• Indianapolis announced he would not return to the preseason opener and has designated him as a day-to-day evaluation with no public timetable for his return.
• Daniel Jones replaced Richardson sooner than expected and is set to absorb the bulk of first-team reps while the Colts reassess their quarterback depth chart.
• This injury adds to Richardson’s track record of missed time, including his 2023 right AC joint surgery and reported shoulder discomfort during June workouts.
• Preseason setbacks have continued to challenge Indianapolis’s quest for long-term quarterback stability since Andrew Luck’s retirement.
