The soon-to-be 3rd-year quarterback recently experienced inflammation in his surgically repaired right throwing shoulder and has been shut down for the team’s minicamp for rest:
“It’s the AC joint that he suffered an injury on in 2023, and there’s some inflammation from that,” said ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. “Richardson went really hard this offseason and in OTAs. He was throwing a lot, sometimes hundreds of footballs a day.”
“So he felt some soreness. Some inflammation. He reported it to Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who did the surgery two years ago. They looked at the scans.
