ESPN&#8217;s Louis Riddick suggests the team trade for Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson during a recent &#8216;Get Up&#8217; appearance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">&#8220;No one is going to question Andy Reid. No one is going to question the wisdom of going ahead and sitting behind Patrick Mahomes,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/m.youtube.com\/watch?v=dFCh3FYhFEg&amp;pp=ygUjZ2V0IHVwIGVzcG4gbG91aXMgcmlkZGljayBjb2x0cyB0YWc%3D\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|z|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">said Riddick<\/a>. &#8220;No one is going to question that at this point, considering they just brought back Eric Bieniemy for the single most important reason, which is: they really needed to instill some accountability on that side of the football. I think that&#8217;s exactly what Richardson needs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">After being drafted by the Colts with the fourth overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Richardson has dealt with various injury issues and questionable on-field moments. With his high upside, he was unable to secure the starting job last season due to the emergence of Daniel Jones.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Kansas City struggled without Mahomes last season, going winless, and it could be a high-risk move for Richardson to join a team in win-now mode.<\/p>\n<p>Expert NFL picks: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":body nav (nfl)|e|auto spike click:5|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_sp_a\" href=\"https:\/\/sportsdata.usatoday.com\/football\/nfl\/picks\">Exclusive betting insights only at USA TODAY.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Feb. 28, 2026, 7:00 a.m. CT The backup quarterback position for the Kansas City Chiefs is a crucial&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":784142,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2063],"tags":[95878,346,7,118,110,2438,2437,6,96828,96829,95882,98103,96015,95892,96831,96540,95888,95895,95897,97650,95883,95881],"class_list":{"0":"post-784141","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-kansas-city-chiefs","8":"tag-accessfree","9":"tag-chiefs","10":"tag-football","11":"tag-kansas-city","12":"tag-kansas-city-chiefs","13":"tag-kansascity","14":"tag-kansascitychiefs","15":"tag-nfl","16":"tag-sstssportsnflchiefs","17":"tag-sstsnchiefs","18":"tag-tagamerican-football","19":"tag-taganthony-richardson","20":"tag-tagdaniel-jones","21":"tag-tagespn-inc","22":"tag-tagfootball","23":"tag-tagkansas-city-chiefs","24":"tag-tagnfl","25":"tag-tagnfl-hub","26":"tag-tagoverall-negative","27":"tag-tagpatrick-mahomes","28":"tag-tagsports-news","29":"tag-typestory"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116153407581169160","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/784141","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=784141"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/784141\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/784142"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=784141"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=784141"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=784141"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
