The development of Anthony Richardson, who started only 13 games at Florida, was always going to be a process. And the Colts weren't hiding from that fact. "Let's not crown him yet," general manager Chris Ballard said the day Richardson was drafted in 2023.

Coming out of college there wasn’t much buzz around quarterback Anthony Richardson. In his one full season as a starter at Florida in 2022, he threw for an unimpressive 17 touchdowns to nine interceptions while barely completing above 50% of his passes.

Not that long ago, Anthony Richardson was viewed as a potential superstar in the making. With the build of a fullback, 4.43-second speed and a cannon for a right arm, he didn't make it out of the top-five of the 2023 NFL draft after the Indianapolis Colts selected him fourth overall.
