Colts' Anthony Richardson 'Like a Bigger Version of Mike Vick,' SEC Coordinator Says

In only 13 college starts, quarterback Anthony Richardson impressed the Indianapolis Colts enough for them to grab him with the fourth overall pick of 2023.

That might be because his skills fit well with head coach Stane Steichen's new offensive scheme, an SEC coordinator told ESPN's Adam Rittenberg.

"I love the Colts taking him because of the scheme," the SEC coordinator said. "They'll let him get outside the pocket. He's like a bigger version of Mike Vick."

Richardson is 6-foot-4, 244 pounds, but that did not slow him down at the NFL combine. He ran the 40-yard dash in 4.
