Colts: A Historical Season Predicted for Anthony Richardson
Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson has a big sophomore year ahead of him. After suffering a shoulder injury in Week 5 of 2023, Richardson has made a full recovery and expects to start under center when the 2024 NFL season kicks off.
In a shortened rookie season, Richardson posted seven total touchdowns (3 passing, 4 rushing) and 713 total yards. Colts fans caught only a glimpse of the 22-year-old’s potential, but the bright spots certainly shined for Richardson.

Looking ahead to the upcoming season, Bleacher Report‘s Gary Davenport wrote his predictions for every starting quarterback. Richardson’s predicted stats pay homage to his dual-threat ability at quarterback.
If these numbers come true, Richardson would be only the fourth-ever quarterback to record 1,000 rushing yards in a single season (Michael Vick 2006, Lamar Jackson 2019 & 2020, Justin Fields 2022). With a 4.43 40-yard dash, the open-field speed is something to watch out for this season. Combining that speed with one of the league’s most creative play-callers in Shane Steichen and Indy will have a serious threat in the run game.
The predicted passing stats are eerily similar to Richardson’s final year at the University of Florida, where he posted 17 touchdowns and 9 interceptions in 12 games. At Florida, Richardson didn’t have the kind of weapons he has in Indianapolis. Players like Michael Pittman Jr., Josh Downs, and AD Mitchell provide a lethal combination of good hands and elite speed that can tear apart defenses.

It wouldn’t be a surprise to see Richardson clear these numbers, especially if he plays to his full potential. “I like where he’s at right now big time,” said head coach Shane Steichen. “He’s been on it fundamentally wise. He’s a compact guy type, really good feet, quick feet, which is really good to see. But the arm motion looks good, looks real good out there. So, no concerns there.”
Kickoff is officially under 100 days away as the clock continues to tick until that September 8th game against the Houston Texans. Richardson & Co. have the opportunity to break a Week 1 loss streak that stretches back to the 2013 season.

Indianapolis councilman says ‘No Data Centers’ note was left at his home after someone opened fire
The home of a councilman in Indianapolis was shot at early Monday in what local police said was an “isolated, targeted incident.”
The incident came less than a week after the Indianapolis Metropolitan Development Commission voted 6 to 2 on April 1 to approve rezoning to allow the construction of a data center.
Ron Gibson, a Democrat who represents District 8 on the council, spoke out in support of the rezoning and the efforts to build the data center in his district.
“Earlier this morning, between approximately 12:45 a.m. and 12:50 a.m., just a few hours after Easter Sunday, an individual fired 13 rounds at the front door of my home and left a note on my doorstep that read, ‘No Data Centers,’” Gibson said in a Monday statement.

The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department said it was called to the home on Monday morning, and officers found evidence that gunshots had been fired at the house. Police said no injuries were reported.
“I understand that public service can bring strong opinions and disagreement, but violence is never the answer, especially when it puts families at risk,” Gibson said in his statement.
The Indianapolis-Marion County City-County Council did not respond to requests for comment from Business Insider.
The data center is set to be built by Metrobloks, a data center developer based in Los Angeles. Following the vote last week, Gibson shared a statement on social media promoting the project.
“Metrobloks has the potential to bring significant investment, create jobs, and generate long-term tax revenue that supports infrastructure, housing, and essential services,” the statement said.
A data center boom is happening across the US, with companies pouring billions into building the infrastructure to keep up with demand in the era of AI. The data centers have faced increased opposition, with critics pointing to the high resource costs, from water to energy, and other issues like noise pollution, as detailed in a Business Insider investigation.
