2025 Fantasy Outlook
Health has been an issue for Richardson since the Colts drafted him fourth overall in 2023. He's missed 17 of 34 games, including four last season with hip, oblique, foot and back injuries (he was benched while healthy for two other games). Perhaps an even greater issue is Richardson's accuracy. Last year, it was off the chart -- the bottom of the chart. At 54.9 percent, his on-target rate was last in the league by more than 12 percentage points, and his 47.7 completion percentage was the worst since Tim Tebow's 46.5 in 2011. It doesn't help that Richardson is in love with the deep ball. He threw 20.1 percent of his attempts at least 20 yards downfield -- far and away tops in the league -- and had a league-high 12.2-yard average target depth. Yet, he converted that to a mere 6.8 YPA (25th). His massive rushing production -- 499 yards and six scores in 11 games -- was the one saving grace for his fantasy value, but he nonetheless failed to reach 14 fantasy points in seven games (four with single digits). This year, Richardson lost a summer job battle to free-agent signing Daniel Jones, who was named the Week 1 starter in mid-August. There's still hope Richardson's accuracy improves with better footwork and touch, as he turned 23 in May and has just 348 NFL pass attempts to his name. However, he'll start the season on the bench, and it doesn't seem like he has much of a future with Colts coach Shane Steichen even if the team ends up starting Richardson again at some point this season.

Gets time late in blowout win
Richardson was 1-for-2 passing for nine yards, catching his own pass when deflected by the defensive line, in Sunday's win over Las Vegas. He played seven snaps late in the blowout victory.
ANALYSIS
Richardson has been relegated to a true backup with Daniel Jones playing well as the starter. There was some thought early in the season that Richardson could be used on short-yardage and goal-line plays, but Jones has been strong in those situations as well.

2023
Richardson’s rookie season earned an "incomplete" thanks to injuries, but his four-game debut showed glimpses of why the Colts made him the fourth overall pick in 2023. He suffered a bruised knee in Week 1, a concussion in Week 2 that also cost him the next game and a season-ending shoulder injury in Week 5 that required surgery. He showed off his big arm at times, though he didn’t throw deep a lot -- just 7.1 percent of his attempts went beyond 20 yards -- and his accuracy, while still a work in progress, wasn’t necessarily the Achilles' heel some expected. His running game is already top-tier, and he proved as elusive and powerful as advertised en route to 5.4 yards per rush (8th among QBs with at least 25 attempts) and four touchdowns. On 14 designed runs, he averaged a QB-high 7.0 yards per rush. The uber-athletic Richardson has an unprecedented size/speed combo -- 6-4, 244 with a 4.43 40 -- that should give him a solid fantasy floor while his passing develops. Coach Shane Steichen, who guided the development of Jalen Hurts in Philadelphia, will undoubtedly encourage Richardson to better protect himself, but the QB will still form a nasty two-headed rushing attack with RB Jonathan Taylor. WRs Michael Pittman, Josh Downs and Alec Pierce are reliable targets, and the team drafted 6-2 Adonai Mitchell, who has 4.34 speed, to give Richardson the deep threat he did not have last season. Better health might be all that's needed for Richardson to quickly jump into the top 5 of fantasy quarterbacks.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Future iffy in Indy
Richardson's agent, Deiric Jackson, does not believe the quarterback was given a fair chance to win the starting job this preseason and thinks his relationship with the Colts has been damaged, Stephen Holder of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Richardson and Daniel Jones each started one preseason game this year, though Richardson's outing was cut short after he dislocated his pinkie. However, Jackson's frustration on behalf of his client extends to last season's handling of the fourth overall pick in the 2023 Draft, when he was briefly benched due to his perceived lack of preparation and work ethic. Richardson offered a more deferential tone when speaking to the media after the decision to start Jones was announced, but his future with the Colts does appear to be in question.
