Colts Grant Richardson Trade Permission

The Indianapolis Colts have given quarterback Anthony Richardson permission to seek a trade following his competition loss to Daniel Jones for the starting position.

The Colts' decision comes after Richardson, the No. 4 pick in the 2023 draft, lost the QB competition to Jones for the 2025 season. Indianapolis intends to keep Jones as their long-term quarterback.

Richardson has struggled with injuries throughout his young career, including a shoulder injury that required surgery after his rookie season and an orbital fracture that sidelined him much of last year. In 17 career games with 15 starts, he has completed 50.6% of his passes.
