Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson left the game twice in the span of four plays of the first quarter against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.
The second-year player took two big hits — one to his hip, which forced a fumble, and the other to his head — on designed runs. He headed to the locker room with a hip injury after the second hit.
Team officials announced his return was questionable. Richardson returned to the sideline early in the second quarter but did not re-enter the game.
Joe Flacco replaced Richardson both times and threw a 4-yard touchdown pass to Josh Downs to give the Colts a 14-0 lead with 2:34 left in the first quarter.
Richardson has dealt with multiple injuries since being the fourth overall draft pick in 2023. He played in only four games as a rookie before suffering a season-ending shoulder injury, but only finished one of the four games.
