Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson has been on injured reserve for several weeks now, but many are wondering if he can return in Week 15 after Daniel Jones suffered a significant injury that will end his season.

Richardson got injured during a pregame workout when he was using a stretching band to warm up his arm. The band apparently got loose and hit Richardson across the face. He sustained an orbital fracture and vision impairment.

You could hear a pin drop. Or at least, you could feel the collective gasp of Indianapolis when Daniel Jones went down. We were watching what was supposed to be the ultimate redemption arc.

Daniel Jones revolutionized the Indianapolis Colts with his display during 14 weeks of the 2025 NFL season. The veteran quarterback joined the AFC South team surrounded by doubts after a tumultuous six-year tenure with the New York Giants, where he failed to unlock his potential.

Anthony Richardson's future is being discussed across NFL circles after it was reported that the Indianapolis Colts are trying out eight-time Pro Bowl quarterback Philip Rivers. This comes after starter Daniel Jones sustained an Achilles tear on Sunday and has been ruled out for the season.

According to Mike Florio, the Colts don’t know when or even if QB Anthony Richardson will be cleared to return from an orbital bone fracture this season.

Since the Colts' former No. 1 overall pick retired ahead of the 2019 season, it's been a quarterback carousel in Indianapolis. Here's the timeline.

This is a bold prediction, to say the least. Regardless of how Rivers actually does on Sunday, it’ll be pretty exciting to see him get back into the groove of playing in the NFL
