Colts rookie QB Anthony Richardson in concussion protocol

Yeah.  I'd reckon he'll spend a bit of time in that protocol if he continues to play that way.  He's gotta get better at protecting himself if he's going to last as a real "dual threat QB".  Even a guy like Cam Newton who was built a little bigger and more ruggedly, had better apparent awareness of how to protect himself at least a little bit better.

 

That play where he got injured, quite honestly looked like he could've ended up with two separate concussions on the same play.  One from the violent twisting recoil of his head initially being hit with that blindside, and then obviously the even bigger looking one when the back of his head bounced off the ground like it was a trampoline.

Richardson and C Ryan Kelly didn’t practice today so neither will play Sunday. 
 

Also Quenton Nelson missed Wednesday and Thursday with a toe. So it’s possible he is questionable to play as well. 

Any chance the Colts are bad this year and want to trade off Buckner.. :)

it’s not likely to happen. Buck and Grove are inseparable. When the Colts traded Stephon Gilmore; rumors started spreading that Buckner wanted to be traded and Buck went on Twitter/X to tell the account NFLRumors “I need you to check your sources” 

Gilmore only got traded because he asked for a trade. Buckner probably won’t ask for one.

His playing style has now led him to miss 1/3 of his career so far, and based on when he left the other game, it's closer to just 50% on the field. This level of on-field availability is not what you expect out of your #4 pick, especially if it's a quarterback.

You can’t be serious with this post? 1/3 of his career? It’s 3 games, lol. The most hyperbole statement ever. Don’t be mad the Titans drafted the most obvious bust in history in Will Levis.

I get it's way to early to judge but what he said still applies. In 2 games, AR13 has been removed from both games do to injury. His style of play which is Cam Newton esq' is getting him hurt. It's not debatable really. 

Wk 1: Knee

Wk 2: Concussion 

WK 3: Gm Missed

it's not new, either. he missed a bunch of games in college with hamstring and meniscus injuries. a freakish talent for sure but injuries are a concern with him, period.

He better start playing like Russell Wilson /Jalen Hurts instead of Cam,  RGIII and Andrew Luck or we'll have the same conversation about him in the coming years. 

Without the League MVP.

Andrew Luck wasn't injured out of the league or anything. He was just a p*ssy.
