As Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson prepares for his fourth season, he's fighting to avoid falling to third on the Indy depth chart behind Daniel Jones and Riley Leonard.
Richardson generated solid numbers in the first half of Thursday's preseason opener against the Patriots.
It didn't start smoothly. On the fifth play of the Colts' opening drive of the night, Richardson threw an interception.
In fairness to Richardson, it wasn't really his fault. The ball came out of the hands of receiver Coleman Owen before being caught by Patriots cornerback Kindle Vildor.
Richardson also lost a fumble, which was his fault.
For the first half, Richardson completed 11 of 14 passes for 145 yards. He rushed six times for 53 yards and a touchdown.
A trade remains possible. It all comes down to whether he shows enough in the preseason to get someone to bite. He could do enough to earn the No. 2 job in what would be his fourth season in Indianapolis.
