Colts QB Richardson Injured in Win Over Steelers

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson suffered a hip injury during the first quarter of the team's 27-24 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Despite briefly returning to the game, Richardson was eventually replaced by veteran backup Joe Flacco, who led the Colts to victory. Richardson completed 3 of 4 passes for 71 yards and rushed for 24 yards before his injury. The initial diagnosis is a right hip pointer, and the team hopes he will miss little to no game action. Richardson expressed optimism about his recovery, though he acknowledged some soreness and the need to evaluate his condition further. Referee Land Clark ruled one of the hits that led to the injury as incidental contact, not warranting a penalty.
