Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson pulled himself out of Sunday’s game against the Texans and his teammates are letting the young player hear it.
“We had a conversation about it, and I think he knows that’s not the standard he needs to play up to, and the rest of the team holds him, too,” Colts star center Ryan Kelly told reporters.
“I’ll kind of leave the conversation we had at that. I know he’s going to take some criticism for that, and rightfully so, that’s a tough look.”

Kelly’s opinion carries weight since he is among the team leaders and best players on the roster, making a second-team All-Pro in 2020 and earning four Pro Bowl selections.
Richardson told reporters after Sunday’s 23-20 loss that he removed himself from a third-and-goal play from the 23-yard-line in the third quarter because he was “Tired, ain’t gonna lie.”
