The Indianapolis Colts will turn to veteran quarterback Joe Flacco to start this Sunday’s game, as rookie QB Anthony Richardson continues to battle back and foot soreness. Richardson, who has been struggling with the injuries this week, did not practice at all and has officially been downgraded to out for the game.

Flacco, 39, brings years of experience to the Colts’ offense, having started over 170 games in his career. The team will be looking to him for stability as they face off against their Week 5 opponent. Richardson, who has shown flashes of promise in his rookie season, will be sidelined in hopes of fully recovering from the ailments.

The Colts have yet to announce further details on Richardson’s recovery timeline, but for now, Flacco will take the reins in what promises to be a crucial game for Indianapolis as they look to stay competitive in the AFC South.
