Richardson suffered an eye injury while warming up with a band before the game, the NFL Network reported. Colts rookie Riley Leonard will be backing up Jones for the game.
The former Florida standout has had a tough 2025 so far, and the reported eye injury compounds things. He has only made appearances in the Colts' blowout wins against the Tennessee Titans and the Las Vegas Raiders this season. He has one completion for nine yards.
The Colts selected him with the No. 4 overall pick in the 2023 draft. However, he missed most of his rookie season in 2023 due to an injury. He was 2-2 in four starts with 577 passing yards and three touchdown passes.
