Sound the alarms. Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson has resumed throwing.
The second-year quarterback continues to rehab his throwing shoulder following season-ending surgery to repair a Grade 3 AC joint sprain, which he suffered during the Week 5 game against the Tennessee Titans.
Richardson posted earlier this week that he would begin throwing soon, and it seems that time has come.

Though there is still a long way to go, it’s encouraging that Richardson seemingly hasn’t suffered any setbacks. Beginning a throwing program in February may put him on track to participate in the spring workouts, but that hasn’t been confirmed yet.
Richardson showed off his dual-threat ability during the first month of his rookie season and even proved his abilities as a passer are much further developed than initially thought when he was drafted No. 4 overall in 2023.
Richardson also showed some incredible poise in the pocket and command of the huddle despite his lack of experience as a starter entering the league.
We’ll see how Richardson progresses with his throwing program, but this should get Colts fans excited as the offseason truly begins.
