Indianapolis Colts' backup quarterback Anthony Richardson spoke to reporters on Tuesday about the team's decision to name Daniel Jones the starting quarterback after the pair battled for that role during training camp.

If you ask assistant GM Ed Dodds, the answer is simple. "No," Dodds said in response to that question. Why does Dodds believe that? "He's young. He's talented and we knew it was going to be a long-term project," Dodds said. On the field this summer, Richardson has made clear strides with his overall accuracy and decision-making.

Given Richardson's injury history plus general concerns about his development stagnating because of the turbulent start to his NFL career, Indianapolis signed former New York Giants first-round pick Daniel Jones to a one-year, $14 million contract to push Richardson and compete for the starting quarterback job.
