The Indianapolis Colts QB and his squad were facing off with the Baltimore Ravens Thursday when halfway through the first quarter linebacker David Ojabo sacked the two-year NFL vet.
While it looks like an average hard hit on the gridiron, Richardson was lifted from the game shortly after this tackle … and, when you see his finger, it’s clear why.
Click at your own risk … the pinkie finger on his right hand is bent at nearly a 45-degree angle to the right, away from the rest of his digits.
It certainly doesn’t look good … but, we don’t know how severe the injury is yet — could be a couple weeks out, but at least he’s got about a month until the team’s opening week matchup against the Miami Dolphins in Indy.
Richardson’s dealt with his fair share of injuries during his career … playing in just 15 of the Colts’ 34 regular-season games.
Former Giants QB Daniel Jones is the next guy up if Richardson isn’t ready by opening weekend … stay tuned.
