Colts QB Anthony Richardson out indefinitely with injury to throwing shoulder
INDIANAPOLIS — Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson injured his throwing shoulder and will be out indefinitely, coach Shane Steichen said Thursday, creating a fresh concern for a player whose first two seasons in the NFL were plagued by health issues. The injury is to Richardson's AC joint, which he previously had season-ending surgery on in October of 2023, his rookie season. Richardson reported pain in his AC joint after an OTA practice last Thursday. He has not practiced since. Advertisement 'Doctors, trainers checked it out. He's got some aggravation in his AC joint,' Steichen said. 'So, we're gonna sit him out this week. Obviously, he'll sit out for minicamp. We'll see when he comes back. Not gonna put a timetable for training camp on it, but when he does come back, we'll ease him into throwing and then we'll go from there.' Thursday is the last day of voluntary OTAs. Veteran minicamp is scheduled for June 10-12. The report day for training camp is July 22, per Steichen. Per Shane Steichen – QB Anthony Richardson is dealing with a shoulder injury and will not participate in mini-camp next week. — Indianapolis Colts (@Colts) June 5, 2025 The injury is a result of throwing and the 'stress over time' of the motion on Richardson's AC joint, Steichen said. The coach added Richardson will not need surgery right now. Asked if the aggravation in Richardson's AC joint is a normal occurrence for someone who has had surgery on that area, Steichen said he wasn't a doctor and could not get into specifics. Steichen said the team has not considered signing another QB. The Colts added to their QB room this offseason by signing ex-New York Giants starter Daniel Jones in free agency and drafting former Notre Dame star Riley Leonard in the sixth round. Jones and Richardson are competing for the starting job. Richardson has yet to stay healthy for a sustained stretch in his NFL career. He has missed 17 games because of injuries in two seasons. Twelve of those absences were because of a severe AC joint sprain that required surgery, two were for back spasms, another two were due to an oblique injury and one was because of a concussion. He was also benched for two games last year due to what Steichen cited as a lack of game preparation. Colts GM Chris Ballard declared an open competition this offseason, in part because of Richardson's durability issues. 'We've got to have competition at the position,' Ballard said during his season-ending news conference in January. 'For one, for the fact that competition makes everybody better. And then two, he's not proven he can play 17 games.' Steichen said Jones will now take all of the first-team reps. The 2018 No. 6 pick has the upper hand in the QB competition as Richardson remains sidelined. Richardson, the No. 4 pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, is the Colts' highest-drafted player since the team selected Andrew Luck No. 1 in 2012. The franchise hasn't had a mainstay at QB since Luck's surprising retirement before the 2019 season, and Richardson was supposed to be the franchise's long-term answer at the position. But beyond the injuries, Richardson's play has done little to convince the team he is the QB of the future. Advertisement Last year, Richardson threw eight TDs and 12 interceptions. His 47.7 completion percentage was the lowest mark in the NFL. He's 8-7 as a starter through two seasons. 'Obviously, it's frustrating, but he is in good spirits,' Steichen said of Richardson's latest injury. 'So, we're working through it right now.'

Immanuel Feyi-Waboso returns to Steve Borthwick's England squad
Immanuel Feyi-Waboso took part in the first day of England's summer training camp as he nears a return from the shoulder injury that scuppered his British & Irish Lions hopes. Feyi-Waboso has not played since December but is among the 33 players who convened at Pennyhill Park on Tuesday for a two-day camp and was 'raring to go', according to the head coach, Steve Borthwick. The return to training opens up the prospect of Feyi-Waboso now being available for the Lions, and Borthwick may take up to 36 players on tour to Argentina and the United States this summer to allow for late call-ups to Andy Farrell's squad in Australia. The 22-year-old wing will not feature in Wednesday's training sessions because he has returned to

Jude Bellingham ‘facing major surgery' after England and Real Madrid star played through pain for 18 MONTHS
JUDE BELLINGHAM is reportedly set to have surgery a long-standing shoulder problem after playing through 18 months of pain. The Real Madrid star has allegedly avoided going under the knife after dislocating his shoulder a year and a half ago. 2 According to Spanish outlet Marca, "everything points to Bellingham having surgery on his shoulder" this summer. The 21-year-old star fell awkwardly during a clash with Rayo Vallecano in November 2023. He was forced to miss Los Blancos' next two matches, while also being absent for England's final two Euro 2024 qualifiers. Since, Bellingham has been playing with his shoulder heavily strapped to avoid aggravating the injury. There were suggestions that the England international would have the surgery after Euro 2024. But with the Three Lions reaching the final against Spain, there was little in the way of a break before the new LaLiga campaign. Bellingham also missed the first few weeks of this term, after picking up a muscle injury to his lower right leg in pre-season. But the midfielder could again run out of time this summer too, with Madrid playing in the Fifa Club World Cup. The tournament begins on June 14 and if Madrid make the final, that takes place a month later on July 13. Bellingham has faced criticism from Madrid fans in recent weeks. The midfielder was blamed for making a mistake for Barcelona 's opening goal in Madrid's 3-2 Copa del Rey final defeat. He gave the ball away on the half-way line - with his pass intercepted by Barca star and goalscorer Pedri. The Birmingham starlet was later sent off for dissent in the final moments of the match, before it was later overturned a few days later. Madrid remain four points behind Barca in LaLiga, with four games remaining. The two giants face each other in an all-or-nothing El Clasico on Sunday night.
