Overview

• Anthony Richardson’s AC joint aggravation in his throwing shoulder sidelined him from mandatory minicamp and limited his offseason workload.
• Jones, signed to a one-year, $14 million deal, has taken all first-team snaps during minicamp and adapted quickly to Steichen’s offense.
• Jones left a potential return to Minnesota to sign with the Colts in pursuit of a starting opportunity.
• Matt Hasselbeck predicted Jones will be the Colts’ Week 1 starter, citing Jones’s health and reliability over Richardson’s durability concerns.
• Despite an expected return by training camp, Richardson’s recurring shoulder issues have intensified scrutiny of his long-term NFL readiness.
