The Colts dropped a surprise on Monday when they announced Anthony Richardson had a nose surgery, but should return to practice in the next day or so.
After practice, head coach Shane Steichen reiterated that Richardson should be OK soon.
“Anthony had a little procedure done on his nose just so he can breathe better,” Steichen said, via Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan. “We had to get it done. [Sunday] was the off day and we got it done. He should be back tomorrow, and if he’s not he will be back the next day [Thursday]. It’s nothing serious.”
As a rookie quarterback, all of Richardson’s reps are important. So it’s a good thing that he may be back after missing just one day.
Gardner Minshew and Sam Ehlinger got all the work at quarterback on Monday with Richardson out.
