Restinpeacesweetchloe Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I suspect they will let him get completely healthy because of how he plays. Easy to reinjure. Colds need to sign Gardner to a backup extension with the way this is going. Just now, jvan1973 said: He hasn't even gotten the MRI yet He had it at a imaging center after the game.

Not saying anything about how severe it is. All I did was give an example of another player who had a similar injury to Richardson. Clearly that’s not locked in stone that it will be the same for Richardson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think Minshew might get another shot as a starter somewhere else at some point. I'm sure he wants another shot at it, so I don't see him signing an extension to be a backup. He's better than at least 10 starters out there in my opinion. I don't think he will ever be a career starter, though. His ceiling is only so high, so he's never going to lead a team to a Super Bowl, and that's the problem. At some point teams move on from him.

Restinpeacesweetchloe Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 6 month recovery possible if it needs surgery. There was no dislocation according to negative X-rays so hopefully that means no damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JColts72 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 (edited) Just wrap him in bubble wrap. Another injury next time and some of us here may start to sour on the pick.

Indianapolis-Colts-Fan Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Looks like Drs. Think it’s a mind sprain. No reason to send him out when it could be worse. No need to keep throwing even if he could manage the pain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing with the amount of injuries AR is having, the Colts will pay him pretty well to stay here as his backup. We will see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defjamz26 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I think he should reach out to Lamar and Hurts. See what they do to prevent themselves from being injured on every rush. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SR711 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 1) Its unlikely that he needs surgery if its only an AC sprain. Xrays would've indicated a more severe type of injury for which surgery would be necessary. However, the MRI will tell if the ligaments are torn and/or if there is any other soft tissue injury involving the shoulder joint. If its AC sprain requiring no surgery, my best guess is that he is out 2-4 weeks. 2) Do not, without exception, put AR back on the field until he is absolutely pain free throwing a football with all throws. We do not as a franchise or fanbase need a repeat of the Andrew Luck 2015 season which altered his career. 3) At the risk of belaboring a point, no more read option plays in this offense. If Richardson busts a run off a broken pass play, fine. However, its pretty clear that using him as a RB is going to lead to problems long term. If he can't be developed into a guy that can win throwing the football (which BTW I absolutely think he can), then we drafted the wrong guy anyways. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
