Anthony Richardson’s legs have reinvigorated his quarterbacking ability since his elevation

Anthony Richardson struggled to find consistency prior to his infamous benching that followed a Week 8 loss to the Houston Texans. Fast-forward to three games after his elevation, Colts head coach Shane Steichen is utilizing Richardson in ways that have, in turn, helped instill a newfound confidence in the young quarterback.

Before he was benched, Anthony Richardson was looking a bit lost, especially when he’d drop back and become a passer. Through his first six starts of his sophomore campaign in the NFL, Richardson posted a 44.4 completion percentage to pair with a 4:7 TD-INT ratio.
