Indianapolis quarterback Anthony Richardson exited the Colts’ preseason game in Baltimore on Thursday night after taking a heavy hit from David Ojabo. The Ravens’ pass rush aggressively pursued Richardson, who is battling with Daniel Jones for the starting quarterback position. Following the hit, Richardson jogged off the field and was replaced by Jones, who remained as quarterback for the next offensive series. The original plan had Richardson starting for about one and a half quarters, with Jones playing for half a quarter. Richardson managed to lead the Colts to a field goal during their opening drive.
