Colts Holding Onto Richardson, Despite Trade Hopes

On March 31, Colt's quarterback, Anthony Richardson, is still on the roster heading into the

offseason because the trade market for him just didn't.

Heat up like they hoped.

ESPN insider Adam Schefter broke it down on the Pat McAfee show, saying teens weren't

lining up with solid offers.

The Colt's weren't about to swap him for scraps like a 7th round pick for a 6th.

They figured why bother when you can just hold tight.

General manager Chris Ballaggot real at the league meetings this week, admitting there's

a real chance Richardson sticks around through the 20, 26 season.

No fire sale here, they're playing it smart, with his contract in its final rookie year

and a 5th year option, looming for 2027.

Richardson's career has been rough, with injury sidelining him.

He's only played in 17 games over 3 seasons.

His passing gains been spotty at 50.6% completion, 11 touchdowns against 13 picks, but he flashes

legs with 600, 34 rushing yards and 10 scores.

Things could shift after the draft if some team misses out on their guy and ups the ante.

But for now, the Colt's are standing pat betting on his, upside down the line.
