Colts make interesting quarterback move ahead of Week 18 finale
Seth Henigan at Jacksonville Jaguars Mandatory Minicamp | Logan Bowles/GettyImagesThe Indianapolis Colts are leaving open the answer to who might start for the team at quarterback in Week 18 against the Houston Texans. The game is meaningless, just as Week 17 turned out to be, but it still might allow some Indy players to get some valuable playing time at the end of the year.
That includes rookie Riley Leonard. He played only the final snap in Week 17, attempting a Hail Mary on the final play as starter Philip Rivers didn't have the arm strength to pull off the play. Why Leonard didn't play more in the game is a mystery, as it didn't matter whether the Colts won or lost.
