Anthony Richardson survives Colts roster cuts

Anthony Richardson, QB, Indianapolis Colts, is on the initial 53-man roster after a turbulent offseason that included a trade request. Adam Schefter reported the news.

Richardson was the 4th overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. Despite trade speculation swirling around him, the Colts held on to their former first-round pick when roster cuts came due.

Colts GM Chris Ballard said his intention is to keep all three quarterbacks on the roster, per ESPN.

What this means for your roster

Richardson staying in Indianapolis keeps his fantasy value tied to whether he wins or retains the starting job. If Ballard is committed to keeping the full QB room, monitor the depth chart heading into the regular season. Richardson's rushing upside makes him worth watching on the waiver wire if he locks in as the starter.
