The Colts have made their call on their starting quarterback. It's probably not the one they wanted and certainly not the one they envisioned at this time last year. Coach Shane Steichen announced Daniel Jones as Indianapolis' starter behind center, with the former Giants and Vikings quarterback beating out Anthony Richardson Sr.

In case the situation does end in a trade, it's worth speculating on the potential return for the Colts. ESPN NFL insider Jeremy Fowler polled a couple of league executives and determined that the market for former San Francisco 49ers top-five draft pick Trey Lance might be the closest comp.

Given Richardson's injury history plus general concerns about his development stagnating because of the turbulent start to his NFL career, Indianapolis signed former New York Giants first-round pick Daniel Jones to a one-year, $14 million contract to push Richardson and compete for the starting quarterback job.

It’s hard to believe that Richardson will beat out Jones for the quarterback job based on the head start Jones had in the early offseason. Richardson worked out with quarterback guru Tom Gormely, who helped improve Josh Allen ’s accuracy.
