Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson missed Week 17, and now the reason for that missed game has been revealed. According to the quarterback, he was left unable to walk after suffering a severe back issue.
According to a report from NFL insider Ari Meirov, Richardson suffered from a disc problem that led him to have to crawl around his house. An MRI revealed the disc issue.
Now, Richardson has stated he feels better and is "standing up now." Despite his healing, this could be a very serious issue that will lead to him missing out on the final game of the season.
The Colts invested a lot of time into Richardson, and they are likely going to play things smart by now allowing the young quarterback to risk reaggravating this back issue in the final game of the season.
