Richardson, who didn’t practice this past week, had been listed as questionable for the contest, but following his downgrade to out, Joe Flacco is slated to start in his place. Richardson will thus target a potential return to action in Week 18 versus the Jaguars.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
The fourth overall pick in this year’s draft, Richardson will compete for the starting job with free-agent acquisition Gardner Minshew. Richardson, who only turned 21 in late May, might need development time, but the Colts will want to see their QB of the future in action at some point this year. At 6-4, 244, Richardson is huge for a quarterback, which makes his 4.43 speed mind-blowing — in fact, it’s the fastest combine 40 time by a player at his height and weight on record (since 2000). That elite athleticism allows him to make plays on the move, and he’s elusive in the open field. Richardson has a big arm to attack downfield, but the knock on him is his accuracy — he completed only 53.8 percent of passes last season at Florida. According to scouts, the inaccuracy stems from poor footwork and a lack of touch on short passes. New head coach Shane Steichen, who oversaw Jalen Hurts’ impressive improvement in accuracy as Philadelphia’s offensive coordinator the last two years, should help with that. And even if Richardson struggles, his rushing ability should give him fantasy value while he refines his passing skills. The Colts return wide receivers Michael Pittman and Alec Pierce, giving Richardson two solid targets, with third-round pick Josh Downs potentially the slot man. And with Jonathan Taylor in the backfield, Richardson gives the Colts a lethal one-two rushing punch.

ANALYSIS
Bortolini, the Colts’ rookie center, took over the starting job from veteran Ryan Kelly in October, but the former will not play Sunday due to a concussion, while Smith is away from the team as he attends to a personal matter. That puts Danny Pinter and Matt Goncalves in line to start at center and right tackle, respectively, with the duo combining for 10 career starts. The absence of Bortolini, Smith and top target Josh Downs makes Sunday’s game a challenging one for Richardson, who is coming off a Week 12 loss to the Lions in which he completed just 11 of 28 passes for 172 yards while adding 61 rushing yards on 10 carries.
