Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen told reporters on Saturday he's "very close" to making a decision in the quarterback battle between Anthony Richardson and Daniel Jones.
“Obviously, I was excited. Excited for the opportunity. As a competitor you want to be on the field, and that’s why you work,” Jones said. “I think we have a good football team.” Jones said he thinks he got the job because he showed Colts coach Shane Steichen that he’s consistent in his leadership of the offense.
The quarterback competition for the Indianapolis Colts is settled. Head coach Shane Steichen has chosen Daniel Jones as the starting quarterback for the Colts, pushing aside 2023 first-round pick Anthony Richardson.
