    Anthony Richardson is a unique player. The Indianapolis Colts quarterback has a big arm, yes. However, his greatest asset might be his running. Possessing insane speed and strength, AR has the potential to be one of the best running QBs in history.

    However, fans are concerned about Richardson's playstyle. In particular, they are worried about how the Colts QB's style could lead to more injuries.

    Shane Steichen is not worried about that. The Colts head coach said that they will be using Richardson as a runner often. Steichen compared the situation to Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors.

    “Are you gonna limit Steph Curry from shooting 3-pointers?”, Steichen asked rhetorically , per James Boyd.

    It's a problem that Colts fans will have to deal with. Richardson is a fantastic runner. To limit his running would be akin to taking away a martial artist's weapon.

    However, leaning into his running could lead to injuries. In fact, the Colts star's season-ending injury last season came from him ramming into a defender. It's a tough balancing act for Steichen and co.

    Richardson wants to prove that his shortened rookie season was not a fluke. How successful will he be in leading the Colts this season?
