    Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson is the gift that keeps on giving.

    He may only have 20 starts in college and NFL football under his belt, but the sheer number of highlight plays that he's put on tape in that short amount of time is truly incredible. In the Colts' Week 1 game against the Houston Texans, Richardson once again left fans speechless with an unreal 60-yard touchdown pass to Alec Pierce.

    While most 60-yard passes are taken into the endzone by the receiver, Richardson's bomb to Pierce went a true 60 yards in the air and landed perfectly in the WR's out-stretched arms in the endzone.

    The play turned heads when it happened on Sunday, but some newly released footage, and an impressive camera angle, have fans going crazy all over again.

    The video has over 1 million views on X, with over 1,000 retweets and 15,000 favorites.

    A bomb is a bomb, but throwing it 60 yards in the air and placing it perfectly for your receiver while falling backward and facing pressure is next-level from a second-year QB.

    Though the Colts lost to the Texans, 29-27 in the season-opener, Richardson had a solid game with 212 yards passing for 2 touchdowns and 1 interception. He also added 56 yards and a touchdown on the ground.

    As one of the most physically gifted passers in the league, we are sure to see more of these highlight-reel-type plays from Richardson over the coming years as long as he can stay healthy.
