INDIANAPOLIS -- Colts coach Shane Steichen on Monday put to rest any questions about the status of quarterback Anthony Richardson.

Steichen said Richardson will remain the starter when he returns from his injury, even in the wake of Sunday's strong performance from veteran backup Joe Flacco in a loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

"He is our starting quarterback," Steichen said of Richardson.

Richardson missed Sunday's game with an oblique injury after taking a hard shot to his midsection in a Week 4 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers.
