Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay says rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson may need season-ending surgery on his injured right shoulder.
that Richardson and the team's medical staff were still mulling treatment options for Richardson's sprained AC joint, but a final decision had not been made — reiterating comments made earlier Monday by coach Shane Steichen.
"The most likelihood is he's probably going to be gone for the year," Irsay said."I mean, it's not definite but probably misses this year, and we're going to have to contend with that factor."Instead, Steichen said discussions were ongoing as team officials continued to gather information about the injury and all potential treatments including season-ending surgery.
"Obviously, we want to do what's best for him and this organization moving forward," Steichen said."Like I said, we'll make that decision when the time is right."though he traveled with the team and wore a sling to protect his throwing shoulder while watching Indy's loss from the sideline.the previous week. After hitting the ground awkwardly, he stayed down for several minutes before walking slowly to the team's medical tent, his right shoulder drooping.
Indy drafted Richardson with the No. 4 overall pick in April, and he was off to a promising start. He had thrown for 577 yards, three TDs and one interception while completing 59.7% of his throws in four games. He also has 25 carries for 136 yards and four TDs, becoming the first quarterback of the Super Bowl era with TD runs in each of his first three NFL games."There's debate going, but it's probably going to lead toward surgery in the next week or so," Irsay said.
