The Indianapolis Colts allowed quarterback Anthony Richardson to seek a trade during the offseason, but he remains a Colt. The 24-year-old who was selected No. 4 overall in the 2023 NFL Draft is entering his fourth season.
Richardson has suffered numerous injuries, his play has been inconsistent and his leadership was once questioned. His trade value is believed to be a mid- to late-round draft pick.
Bleacher Report’s Brad Gagnon sees Richardson on the move during training camp.
“Potential landing spots include the Cardinals — especially if Jacoby Brissett’s contract dispute boils over — the Jets, once they realize Geno Smith is not the guy, or the Steelers, Cowboys, or Panthers as a premium stash-away option for 2027,” he wrote.
