Description
Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson's injured hip was too sore for him to do much at Wednesday's practice.
So 39-year-old backup Joe Flacco took snaps with the starting offense and could be in line to replace Richardson on Sunday in Jacksonville.
Flacco replaced Richardson in last weekend's 27-24 victory over previously unbeaten Pittsburgh, completing 16 of 26 throws for 168 yards and two touchdowns — and he promises he'll be ready to play if needed against the winless Jaguars.
Complicating matters this week are injuries to top rusher Jonathan Taylor and two starting offensive linemen — center Ryan Kelly and right tackle Braden Smith. None of the three practiced Wednesday.
