The fourth overall pick of the 2023 NFL Draft, Anthony Richardson's NFL career truly begins this Sunday as the Indianapolis Colts take on the Jacksonville Jaguars. 

Which will begin a highly anticipated new era for the Indianapolis Colts. 

As his rookie season is set to start, Richardson shared the goals he has for the year. 

Anthony Richardson's Goals: 

  1. Stay Healthy 
  2. Stay Smart

These goals may seem very "basic," but they are two elements that will set up Richardson and the Colts for the most success. He also shared that while he enjoys hitting defenders before they can hit him, he also understands he has to limit the amount of big hits he takes going forward. This understanding will be key to both his goals being accomplished.

The goal he elected to go into more detail on was his 2nd "Stay Smart." 

"Keep playing football try not to put to much pressure on myself or my teammates"
