Colts' Richardson to return

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson has been cleared to return to the field after missing the last two games due to a right oblique injury sustained in Week 4 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Head coach Shane Steichen confirmed Richardson's start against the Miami Dolphins, a crucial development for the 3-3 Colts, who have struggled without their franchise quarterback. In Richardson's absence, Joe Flacco stepped in, achieving impressive statistics, including 716 passing yards and seven touchdowns over two games. However, the Colts will also be without star running back Jonathan Taylor, who continues to recover from a high ankle sprain. Richardson's health is vital for the Colts' playoff aspirations, especially given his history of injuries, having missed 15 of his last 23 games. As the Colts aim to improve their standing, Richardson's performance will be closely monitored, particularly against a Dolphins team looking to capitalize on their own quarterback challenges.
