In Week 7, the Indianapolis Colts saw their starting QB, Gardner Minshew, have three turnovers on the day. But he did accomplish something that no Colts QB has ever done.
Minshew became the first QB in Colts franchise history to have two touchdowns rushing and two passing in the same. To add to this feat, he is only the second player to do this in the entire NFL this season, the other being Lamar Jackson.
Going into this season, if you brought up no QB in Colts history accomplishing this, many likely would have assumed rookie QB Anthony Richardson would have been the first. And while he did have two rushing touchdowns in the first half of the team's Week 2 game against the Houston Texans, he was forced to leave with a concussion and couldn't finish the game.
Minshew showed off his own mobility in Week 7, the most impressive being the first, which looked like a called read option by head coach Shane Steichen. A play many didn't think was in the cards after Richardson got hurt. Steichen will continue to be creative and innovative in how he runs the Colts offense. And it seems he isn't scared to let Minshew use his legs going forward.
