Colts head coach Shane Steichen named Anthony Richardson the No. 2 quarterback behind Daniel Jones for the season, with Riley Leonard as the third option.

Colts' Richardson Sparks Mixed Preseason Opener in Foxborough

The Colts tied the Patriots 13-13 in Foxborough to open the preseason. Anthony Richardson had a mixed night but finished strong, going 11-for-14 with a touchdown run after an opening miscue, while Riley Leonard struggled with pressure. Several regulars sat, but depth players flashed—Will Mallory caught 6 passes for 80 yards, Seth McGowan looked athletic in his NFL debut, and rookies Adebawore and Curry provided interior disruption.

Richardson: preseason debut falls short, vows to improve

Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson said he didn’t play well in Thursday night’s preseason opener, finishing 11-of-14 for 145 yards with an interception and a fumble, plus 53 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown. He noted the turnovers overshadowed the good moments, while coach Shane Steichen praised some positives and said turnovers hurt drives.
