The Indianapolis Colts have scheduled their training camp for July 26. However, uncertainty looms over the team, especially with their young quarterback prospect, Anthony Richardson. Drafted in the first round, pick 4, the 21-year-old has been the talk of the town, drawing comparisons to Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson. Many expect him to be named the starting quarterback.

The Colts have been grappling with their quarterback situation, and to revamp the roster and get back on track, they turned to the Eagles, recruiting Jalen Hurts‘ backup, Gardner Minshew, along with their head coach. However, recent updates suggest that Minshew’s starting role might be in jeopardy.

The Colts might finally have a solution for their QB problem

The Colts’ struggles over the past decade have been no secret, especially with their quarterback Nick Foles facing declining performance. In an effort to turn things around, the management made changes not only to the roster but also to the coaching staff. The new head coach, Shane Steichen, and the addition of two star prospects brought a glimmer of hope to the team. It was also evident that the Colts highly valued Richardson as a potential starter.

Surprisingly, the Colts have expressed their desire for Richardson to take on the starting role much sooner than anyone expected. According to NFL Rookie Watch on Twitter, the 21-year-old rookie is set to lead the team at the quarterback position by or before Week 10, which is when the team is scheduled to play in Germany. Furthermore, Richardson will be sharing first-team reps with Minshew during the training camp.

‘Most Yolked QB in the NFL’: Anthony Richardson Has Fans Begging Their Franchises to Sign Him After Viral Back-Flip Video

With the team’s training camp just a day away, there’s excitement and anticipation for the spectacle that will unfold. However, the abrupt change in the starting position has sparked intense speculation and discussions among fans and experts.

Can Anthony Richardson deliver?

Although the young QB has an overwhelming amount of favorable feedback from the scouts, he still lags behind in terms of experience. The veteran QB, Minshew, had the opportunity to work under the masterful coach, Shane Steichen, who now works for the Colts. He even performed way beyond anyone’s expectations in the absence of Jalen Hurts last season. Moreover, Richardson’s consistency has also become a concern, following his 53.8 completion percentage, which ranked him 13th out of 14 starting SEC quarterbacks last year. Therefore, it’s now up to the management if they decide to play him in week 1 or week 10, potentially looking out for the training camp results.

Both QBs have potential, but Minshew holds an advantage due to his experience. Richardson, on the other hand, might benefit from spending some time on the bench to further develop his skills. Being in the big leagues now, his hopes and dreams could be shattered in a matter of minutes if not handled carefully and thoughtfully.
