Report: Anthony Richardson should be healthy for Colts training camp

Despite a recent injury scare surrounding his right (throwing) shoulder, quarterback Anthony Richardson is expected to be healthy for Indianapolis Colts training camp, NFL Network reported Friday.The third-year signal-caller aggravated the AC joint in his right shoulder and was held out of team minicamp this week. That shoulder is the same one he had AC joint surgery on in 2023.A second opinion on this latest setback confirmed that surgery wouldn’t be necessary. Moreover, the timetable for his return looks more optimistic than previously suggested.In an interview a week ago, head coach Shane Steichen said Richardson would return “at some point” in training camp.”Doctors, trainers checked it out,” Steichen said. “He’s got some aggravation in his AC joint … We’ll see when he comes back. Not gonna put a timetable for training camp on it, but when he does come back, we’ll ease him into throwing, and then we’ll go from there. The good thing is he’s not gonna need a procedure right now.”Richardson, the fourth overall pick of the 2023 NFL Draft, is expected to battle former New York Giants starter Daniel Jones for the Colts’ starting quarterback job this season.
