Anthony Richardson Delivers on Ground, Does Little Else

Colts QB Anthony Richardson ran for a career-high 61 yards in Sunday's loss to the Lions. He added just 172 yards on 11-of-28 (39.3%) passing, with 0 TDs but also no turnovers or sacks.

2024 Fantasy Football Impact

It was a predictably tough day for Richardson against what's been a stellar Lions defense. He gets a much friendlier matchup at New England next Sunday before a Week 14 bye.

It was encouraging to see 10 rushing attempts for the second straight game for Richardson. He reached double digits in just one of his first six appearances this year. But that area's clearly a key to his fantasy value as well as a personal strength.

Expect Richardson to again rank near QB1 territory in Week 13. Having no teams on bye will make it tough for him to crack the top 12, though, despite the more favorable matchup.

A difficult spot against Denver awaits after the bye.
