Commanders linked to Colts first-round QB bust as potential Jayden Daniels insurance
This Colts QB would make for an intriguing backup option for Daniels in Washington.
The Washington Commanders suffered a significant injury setback when their starting quarterback, Jayden Daniels, dislocated his left elbow during a Week 2 game against the Dallas Cowboys. This injury has raised concerns about Daniels' long-term health and availability for the remainder of the season. ESPN analyst Ben Solak has floated an intriguing insurance option for the Commanders: taking a chance on Anthony Richardson Sr. as a potential quarterback two (QB2) option for next season.
Despite Richardson's own injury history with the Indianapolis Colts, Solak believes his upside and dual-threat capabilities make him a viable option to bolster Washington's quarterback depth.
