The Indianapolis Colts are keeping second-year quarterback Anthony Richardson out for the second game in a row due to an injured right hip.

The Colts (2-3) announced that Richardson, the fourth overall pick from Florida in the 2023 draft, will not play against the Tennessee Titans (1-3) on Sunday. This means veteran Joe Flacco will start again.

Richardson missed last week’s game against Jacksonville. He was listed as questionable after practicing all week but had limited participation on both Wednesday and Thursday.

Additionally, the Colts have ruled out Jonathan Taylor for the second week in a row due to an ankle injury that has kept the 2021 NFL rushing champ sidelined.

Indianapolis will welcome back Pro Bowl center Ryan Kelly, who missed last week due to a neck injury. Starting defensive end Kwity Paye (quadricep) and Pro Bowl cornerback Kenny Moore II (hip) will also return after missing the previous game.
