Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen revealed details on the benching of Anthony Richardson.
. As expected, the Indianapolis media had many inquiries today about this decision for head coach Shane Steichen at the podium.
"I'm just looking at where we're at as a football team. Sitting at .500, with a lot of football left. Just felt that Joe gives us the best chance going forward." This is a stark contrast to what Steichen, Chris Ballard, and the rest of Indy's front office preached all offseason, that Richardson needed on-field experience and snaps to learn the ways of a franchise signal-caller in the NFL. Steichen mentioned that getting time to learn from a veteran like Flacco can be another way to develop Richardson.
Steichen isn't generally the most animated interview for the media, but his tone doesn't establish much confidence in Richardson. While it's just an interview and Steichen answered many questions, nobody can seriously say they walked away from his answers thinking highly of Richardson's future.
