The Indianapolis Colts are benching quarterback Anthony Richardson for Joe Flacco, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter and Jeremy Fowler.
Richardson completed 10 of 32 pass attempts for 175 yards, a touchdown, and an interception against the Houston Texans in Week 8. The 31.25% completion rate is the lowest Richardson has posted in an NFL game.
Flacco has appeared in four games (two starts) this campaign. The 39-year-old has 716 yards, seven touchdowns, and one pick. He signed a one-year deal with the Colts this offseason after leading the Browns to a 4-1 record in five starts last year.
