Joe Thomas on How Much More Patience the Colts Have for Anthony Richardson | The Rich Eisen Show

The other two, I guess you if you want to say battles, I don’t think it’s a battle in New Orleans. I think Tyler Shuck gets the job. It’s it’s um the Giants with Jameus Russell and Jackson Dart. But to me, Joe, the most interesting one is, and I don’t think you had Colts quarterback conversation on your dance card when you tried to find good Wi-Fi today, but let’s do it. Like, if Daniel Jones gets that job, let’s just say he wins the job hypothetically. Have you seen enough of an Anthony Richardson where if you’re one of the other 31, you call up the Colts and say, “Hey, can I take him off your hands?” I I think he definitely still has enough potential and he’s a good enough athlete and I don’t think the book has been written on him just yet because there’s a team out there that’s going to look at him and say, “Hey, we think he fits a little bit better in the system we’re trying to run. you know, maybe you’re going to feature his legs a little bit more and give him an opportunity to kind of uh work his way into the system that you’re running because there’s plenty of teams that don’t have that answer at quarterback right now. And he could be a good interim. I mean, if if the Browns had an opportunity to have him this off seasonason in the room, I’m sure they would have added him, right? Have six guys or five guys in the room depending on what are you considering Deshun Watson on the team or not. But, um, quarterback, it’s the most important position in sports. You can never have enough of them. And when you got a guy like Anthony Richardson who’s got that crazy potential and just hasn’t been able to tap it yet, has had some problems undoubtedly and he’s recovering from shoulder surgery, but it’s easy to take a flyer on a guy like that. But um I don’t know if the Colts will be ready to get rid of him because I think we have seen enough Daniel Jones to know that he’s probably not the long-term answer there in Indianapolis. And so really for for Anthony Richardson, they may be a little bit down on him right now, but I don’t think they’re completely out on him. And I think they do want to give him another chance because you’ve invested a lot when you pick a guy in the first round. And so I think they still want to make it work if if it’s possible even though it’s doubtful. So I think they’re much more thinking that Daniel Jones is just that stop gap. And Anthony Richardson might get another opportunity at some point this season to get some playing time no matter what happens with Daniel Jones because I think they do want to really just give him one more chance before they kind of close the book on his Indianapolis Colts career.
