Anthony Richardson's numbers from Thursday's preseason game against the Philadelphia Eagles aren't going to wow anybody.
But the Indianapolis Colts quarterback showed enough to inspire optimism heading into his rookie season.
Richardson played the first half of Indianapolis' final preseason game and went 6-of-17 for 78 yards, zero touchdowns and zero interceptions while adding five carries for 38 yards as a runner. While he wasn't the one directly responsible for the touchdowns, he directed multiple scoring drives and looked in command of the offense for extended stretches.
And plenty of viewers liked what they saw:
