Overview

  • Anthony Richardson aggravated the AC joint in his throwing shoulder during OTAs and will miss the Colts’ mandatory minicamp June 10-12.
  • Head coach Shane Steichen said Richardson does not require surgery but provided no timetable for his return to training camp drills.
  • The injury adds to Richardson’s history of missed time, including season-ending shoulder surgery in 2023 and stints out in 2024 for oblique and back issues.
  • Daniel Jones will take the bulk of first-team reps at minicamp, bolstering his position in the competition for the starting quarterback job.
  • The Colts have no plans for additional quarterback moves, leaving Riley Leonard as the primary backup behind Jones.
