Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson is strongly considering season-ending shoulder surgery, according to multiple sources. Richardson's shoulder injury may require surgery to fix it long-term, potentially putting him out for the rest of the 2023 NFL season. The Colts may have to rely on Gardner Minshew as their starting quarterback in Richardson's absence. Minshew struggled with turnovers in the Colts' recent loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, highlighting the challenges the team may face without Richardson. The decision for surgery is still being considered, but if Richardson's season is indeed over, it could have significant implications for the Colts' performance going forward.
Gardner Minshew threw a trio of INT's, had one negated by penalty and had three more dropped. That adds up to 11 more games of ugh if Colts rookie QB Anthony Richardson needs season-ending shoulder surgery. https://t.co/IAx6aA6d2y

The stuff that Anthony Richardson made easy for the Colts isn’t going to be there with Gardner Minshew at the helm. And that means Indy’s in an all-too-familiar place, trying to work around the limitations of the QB https://t.co/XqrxYqiUzK
If Anthony Richardson’s season is over (and it might be), Colts’ fortunes are in Gardner Minshew’s hands | Fox 59 https://t.co/nOeKfX50t1
Gardner Minshew has been a saving grace for the Colts thus far this year. Sunday, he committed four turnovers in a loss to the Jags. https://t.co/3JfMvWwvQd https://t.co/WX13mNLXiv
We were excited last week, weren't we?? The Colts' loss at Jacksonville today offered a reminder of their limitations. Young cornerbacks. Leaking offensive line. Rookie coach. Gardner Minshew. https://t.co/IAx6aA5Fd0

Minshew just throwing sh— up for grabs
Minshew with 15 INTs in 37 career games prior to today. 2 in 2-plus quarters, and could have had another.
Colts QB Gardner Minshew entered today with 15 INT in 1,016 attempts, a 1.5 INT% that would rank second ALL-TIME if he had 1,500 attempts. Today he's thrown two picks in 28 attempts, had a third dropped (on same drive as one INT) and had a fourth negated by penalty.

Gardner Minshew looked like he forgot he wasn't playing for Jacksonville anymore.
Gardner Minshew's start: 9-for-9, 56 yards Since then: 7-for-16, 80 yards, INT #INDvsJAX
Colts QB Gardner Minshew II is a lot of good things, but here's what he is not: Good enough to make those kinds of mistakes. Lost a fumble, threw a pick after one was dropped, and earlier pick was negated by penalty. Might've been free play in his eyes. Don't know what he saw.
Colts 3, Jaguars 0. 16 play, 65-yard drive. Minshew 9 of 11 on the series, but averaging only 5.1 per attempt.
Lot of short, quick passing from the Colts on their opening drive. Minshew hit his first 9 passes for 56 yards before finally throwing a couple incompletions.
Minshew in character. 7-for-7 with quick, ,short throws.
