Anthony Richardson may have lost the starting quarterback job for the Indianapolis Colts, but he has not lost the support of one of his teammates.
Michael Pittman Jr., who is one of the Colts’ leading receivers, shared a message of support for Richardson on his Instagram Story Wednesday.
“Trust the process, we goin spin back better,” Pittman Jr. wrote.

Richardson has to be feeling badly. Not only did he take a ton of negative press for his admission that he exited a game because he was tired, but he also lost his starting job. Seeing that a teammate like Pittman has his back and believes in him long term has to feel good.
Pittman has 29 for 352 yards and 2 touchdowns this season for the 4-4 Colts.
