Indianapolis Colts rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson has been given the all-clear by doctors from the concussion protocol and is expected to start for the Colts against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 4. Colts head coach Shane Steichen made the announcement on Friday.
Richardson, the fourth overall choice in the April draft, missed the Week 3 victory over the Baltimore Ravens due to injury. He did, though, return to Colts practice on Thursday and will resume starting in Week 4, replacing Gardner Minshew.
Richardson displayed his talent by scoring two rushing touchdowns in the Week 2 victory over the Houston Texans before leaving the game with a concussion. He therefore skipped Week 3 as a result.
