Anthony Richardson was drafted to be the future of the Indianapolis Colts, but after an injury-shortened rookie season, nothing is guaranteed in 2025. Enter Daniel Jones, signed as insurance, but possibly more. If Jones even comes close to pushing Richardson for the starting job during OTAs and camp, the alarm bells will sound in Indy.

Posted on June 6, 2025

When the Indianapolis Colts selected Anthony Richardson in the 2023 NFL Draft, he was hailed as the franchise’s quarterback of the future. With his elite athleticism, cannon arm, and untapped potential, Richardson was seen as the perfect modern quarterback to lead a team into the next era. However, after an injury-shortened rookie campaign, the future in 2025 looks less certain for the young signal-caller.

 

The Injury That Changed Everything

Richardson’s rookie season was marred by setbacks. A shoulder injury sidelined him for much of the year, cutting short what was supposed to be a developmental season. While there were flashes of brilliance—highlight-reel plays that showcased his immense upside—the limited sample size left more questions than answers. Was Richardson simply unlucky, or are there durability concerns that could hinder his career?

 

Enter Daniel Jones

In the offseason, the Colts made a surprising move by signing Daniel Jones, the former New York Giants starter. On paper, Jones’ addition was framed as “insurance”—a veteran presence to stabilize the quarterback room. But the implications run deeper. Jones is not just a backup; he’s a former first-round pick who has proven he can lead a team to the playoffs.

 

If Jones performs well in OTAs and training camp, the Colts could find themselves in an unexpected quarterback controversy. Should Jones push Richardson for the starting role, the ripple effects could be significant. The organization’s faith in Richardson’s long-term potential could be called into question, and the pressure on the young quarterback to perform would intensify.

 

Alarm Bells in Indianapolis

For Colts fans and analysts, the mere possibility of Jones starting over Richardson would be alarming. It would signal that Richardson’s development might not be progressing as expected. The Colts’ decision-makers would face scrutiny for their handling of the quarterback situation. Was it a mistake to bet on Richardson’s potential over more polished prospects? Is the team’s coaching staff equipped to nurture a raw talent like Richardson?

 

On the flip side, a strong showing from Jones could be a blessing in disguise. Competent quarterback play would keep the Colts competitive in the short term while allowing Richardson to develop at his own pace. But such a scenario would also test the patience of fans eager to see their young star take the reins.

 

The Stakes in 2025

The 2025 season is shaping up to be a pivotal year for the Colts. Richardson’s performance—or lack thereof—will define not only his career trajectory but also the team’s direction for years to come. If he can stay healthy and demonstrate growth, he will reaffirm his status as the franchise quarterback. If not, the Colts could find themselves in the unenviable position of reevaluating their quarterback plan.

 

For now, the Colts insist Richardson is their guy. But actions speak louder than words, and the addition of Daniel Jones suggests a hedge against uncertainty. As OTAs and training camp unfold, all eyes will be on Indianapolis to see if Richardson can rise to the occasion or if Jones’ presence signals deeper doubts within the organization.

 

One thing is certain: the quarterback room in Indianapolis is as intriguing as it is uncertain. The stakes have never been higher, and the next chapter of the Colts’ quarterback saga promises plenty of drama.
