Another added, "People looking into INT in TRAINING CAMP are hilarious. Take a breath, people."
One chimed in saying, "For clarity, Jones went 7-8 passing, Richardson went 4-11. One had a much better day than the other and it isn't like it was an interception fest."

The Colts are looking to make the playoffs for the first time since the 2020 season. The franchise has lacked a truly elite quarterback since the days of Andrew Luck, and it's not a surprise that some fans are dreaming of Arch Manning joining the franchise.

Moreover, Manning's uncle, Peyton Manning, is arguably the greatest quarterback in Colts history. He led the program to numerous postseason berths and a Super Bowl XLI win.

Anthony Richardson and Daniel Jones vying for QB1 spot in 2025

Anthony Richardson and Daniel Jones are the two standout names in the Colts' quarterback room. Richardson is entering his third season in the league while Jones is gearing up for Year 7.

Richardson is one of the most physically gifted quarterbacks in the NFL. The Colts selected him with the fourth pick in the 2023 draft due to his measurables and performance in that year's combine. The franchise ignored his iffy collegiate record and opted to pin its hopes on his potential to be the next great dual-threat QB.

Jones spent the first six seasons with the New York Giants. Jones was drafted to be Arch Manning's other uncle, Eli Manning's replacement. Jones led the Giants to one playoff berth during his time with the program but was ultimately released during the 2024 season. He's looking to get his career back on track in a different system in Indianapolis.

The Colts have begun their training camp and will look to put things in order ahead of the preseason.
