Indianapolis Colts rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson is expected to miss the remainder of the NFL regular season due to a shoulder injury. Richardson's absence will pose challenges for the Colts' offense, as Gardner Minshew will be tasked with leading the team. Minshew struggled with turnovers in the Colts' recent loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The decision on whether Richardson will undergo surgery will be made in the future, prioritizing his long-term health. The news of Richardson's likely season-ending injury was confirmed by Colts owner Jim Irsay and reported by various sources including Adam Schefter and Stephen Holder.
