Pat McAfee criticizes Anthony Richardson for ‘missing’ in Colts-Texans game

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson remained uninjured for Sunday’s game against the Houston Texans.

No, the former first-round pick was out of breath, according to the CBS Sports broadcast.

Richardson was hit hard by Texans linebacker Jake Hansen on a first-half tackle and then hit the top of his own sideline as if requesting a sideline substitution. Many expected Richardson to suffer another serious injury after missing most of his rookie season due to a concussion and shoulder injury.

But after learning that the second-year signal caller was uninjured, just tired, many took the opportunity to express their disappointment in Richardson.

Chief among the critics was a former Colts player: retired punter Pat McAfee.

‘I’ve never seen an NFL QB quit when healthy until I watched Anthony Richardson,’ McAfee, a popular ESPN talk show host, wrote on X. ‘The QB is your franchise. ‘The message it sends is loud and effective.’

Many fans agree.

‘I’m done with this experiment,’ one wrote. ‘That’s not the answer, Pat. Even so, there’s no way he can stay healthy all season long.’
