The Indianapolis Colts might not say it publicly, but their experiment with quarterback Anthony Richardson has reached its conclusion. By naming Daniel Jones as the Week 1 starter over Richardson, the Colts have essentially admitted that the fourth overall pick in the 2023 draft simply doesn't have a future in Indianapolis.

The Rams could trade for Richardson this upcoming offseason, and have him learn under Stafford before giving him a bump in pay to be the starter in 2027 -- when he turns 27. Sean McVay is an offensive mind that has gotten the most out of all his quarterbacks. Richardson could be the next one.

The Colts keep saying they'll be patient with Richardson, but it's hard not to believe their patience has run out.
