Colts Stuck with Richardson, Sign Jones

0:00On April 30, the Indianapolis Colts are still holding on to quarterback Anthony Richardson with no trade partner in sight. They let him shop for deals back at the scouting combine, but nothing's clicked. Instead, they locked in Dango Jones with a two-year deal worth up to $100 million, even after his torn right Achilles in 20, 25. Now the big question is whether Richardson sticks around through training camp. General manager Chris Ballard gave the latest scoop after the draft, saying no teams have shown real interest yet. He sounded unfazed, just stressing patience and letting things play out. It's wild most folks figured he'd be gone by organized team activities, but here we are. Richardson's NFL run has been rocky so far. Over three seasons, he started 17 games with an 8 and 7 record, completing under 50% of his passes in most spots, piling up. 51 picks against 11 touchdowns through the air. His legs have been his strength though, with over 600 rushing yards and 10 scores.

1:03Signs point to Richardson skipping OTAs altogether, which could turn training camp into a headache for the locker room. Without buy-in from him, keeping him feels like more trouble than it's worth, putting the next move squarely on his side. That said, if no better offers pop up, Indy might be his best shot in 2026. Jones could miss early games, healing up, giving Richardson a real window to prove his worth, and change the narrative.
