The Indianapolis Colts saw a breakout performance from quarterback Anthony Richardson against the New York Jets after getting benched for two weeks for veteran Joe Flacco. While Richardson’s entire game needs to be praised given the situation and story surrounding the young field general heading into week 11, his fourth-quarter performance is the focus of this analysis. Pro Football Focus shared the metrics on X.
Richardson finished the game 20/30 for 272 passing yards, 1 touchdown (Josh Downs), and no interceptions. He also tacked on 10 rushes for 32 yards and another 2 scores, including the go-ahead play with less than a minute in the fourth quarter, good for 3 all-purpose touchdowns.
