Anthony Richardson has been reinstated as the starting quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts following Joe Flacco's benching. Richardson was seen searching for his red practice shirt at the team locker room, symbolizing a fresh start despite not being indomitable like Superman. Coach Shane Steichen emphasized Richardson's need for attention to detail, which led to his earlier benching. The rookie is working towards becoming the franchise's ideal quarterback, following in the footsteps of Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck. Veteran teammates continue supporting Richardson, underscoring his potential despite past setbacks. Although doubts remain from his performance history, there's optimism as the Colts remain in playoff contention. Flacco expressed disappointment in recent performances, leading to the switch back to Richardson. While expectations are high, the team seeks steady improvement from their young quarterback.
