Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen announced that Daniel Jones beat out Anthony Richardson to become the team’s starting quarterback.
The Indianapolis Colts announced the winner of their quarterback competition on Tuesday.
Head coach Shane Steichen said Daniel Jones will be the team’s starting quarterback in Week 1 when they face the Miami Dolphins in a press conference. Jones beat out former No. 4 overall pick Anthony Richardson for the job.
„He’s our starting quarterback for the season“, Steichen said via the Colts’ website. „I don’t want to have a quick leash on that. I feel confident in his ability.“
Jones and Richardson split first-team reps throughout training camp and the first two preseason games, which Jones will now exclusively take.
