Daniel Jones, Anthony Richardson Sr. Will Not Play in Colts' Final Preseason Game

Tuesday, August 19, 9:41 PM

Indianapolis Colts quarterbacks Daniel Jones and Anthony Richardson Sr. will not play in the team's final preseason game on Saturday against the Cincinnati Bengals, according to Jake Arthur of Sports Illustrated. Riley Leonard and Jason Bean will be the team's signal-callers in the preseason finale. Jones was named Indianapolis' Week 1 starter on Tuesday, but it's clear that the team is still prioritizing Richardson Sr.'s health by holding him out of exhibition action. The third-year quarterback has missed a significant amount of time due to injuries so far in his career, and has already suffered both shoulder and finger injuries since the start of the OTAs in 2025.

Tua Tagovailoa Plays Three Drives in Preseason Finale

Sunday, August 24, 8:11 AM

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa played into the second quarter on Saturday, as the Dolphins completed their preseason with a 14-7 win over the Jaguars. Tua completed four of his eight pass attempts for 49 yards and was sacked twice. After going three-and-out on his first two possessions, he connected with Malik Washington for a touchdown early in the second quarter to cap his final drive of the day and added a two-point conversion toss to Pharaoh Brown. Tua and the Dolphins head to Indianapolis for a Week 1 matchup with the Colts. His pass protection could limit his fantasy upside after struggling this preseason, but the sixth-year quarterback has a high ceiling in coach Mike McDaniel's offense and will start the year healthy. He begins the season as a mid-level fantasy option with the potential for big plays and spike weeks.
