The Indianapolis Colts selected Anthony Richardson over Will Levis in the first round, but with Levis still available, owner Jim Irsay may have a trick up his sleeve.

Twenty-seven more picks came and went with Levis' name not being announced by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell in Kansas City. So, Levis will make his way back to the green room. Levis' name will likely be called at some point Friday, and despite taking Richardson over Levis, Colts owner Jim Irsay may have a trick up his sleeve.Florida quarterback Anthony Richardson reacts after being chosen by the Indianapolis Colts with the fourth overall pick during the first round of the NFL draft Thursday, April 27, 2023, in Kansas City, Mo.
"Colts Fans…would you take Will Levis at #2 if you’re on the board for Colts in 4 hours from now??? … and go [Joe] Montana - [Steve] Young for Franchise??" he tweeted Friday afternoon.If Levis were to be drafted by Indy, it wouldn't exactly mirror the Montana-Young situation. Montana was the San Francisco 49ers' quarterback from 1979 to 1992, and Young didn't make his way to the Bay Area until 1987, backing up Montana for four seasons before becoming a Hall of Fame starter.
