As the Indianapolis Colts gear up for the upcoming NFL season, the competition for the starting quarterback position intensifies between Anthony Richardson and Daniel Jones. NFL insider Albert Breer predicts that Jones will likely be the starter come Week 1. While Richardson has shown flashes of potential, his inconsistency, highlighted by a completion percentage of just 47% last season, raises questions about his readiness. In contrast, Jones has a proven track record with a career completion rate of 64.1% and a far lower interception rate.

Head coach Shane Steichen has confirmed that both quarterbacks will split reps during training camp, emphasizing the importance of consistency in the competition. Despite Richardson's higher ceiling due to his draft pedigree, the Colts' investment in Jones could sway the decision in favor of experience as they aim for a successful season.
