Overview
- Shane Steichen stuck to his split approach by starting Daniel Jones and using Anthony Richardson in the second quarter yet neither quarterback delivered a performance strong enough to settle the Week 1 competition.
- Daniel Jones completed 7-of-11 passes for 101 yards but lost a fumble in the opening quarter and did not guide the offense to a touchdown.
- Anthony Richardson went 6-of-11 for 73 yards, led multiple scoring drives without a turnover, and avoided aggravating his recently dislocated pinky.
- The Colts lost both right tackles when Braden Smith exited with a groin injury and Blake Freeland suffered a fractured lower leg.
- With the unofficial depth chart still listing Jones and Richardson as co-starters, Indianapolis will travel to Cincinnati next Saturday before finalizing its Week 1 quarterback choice.
