The Indianapolis Colts went out on a limb to select quarterback Anthony Richardson in the first round of the NFL Draft.
He was not the most polished prospect, but he has all the tools to be a great NFL player.
Now it is up to the Colts’ coaching staff to get the best out of him.
One part of Richardson that does not need any work is his humility.
He has become a fan favorite and wants to make sure he shows his appreciation for his supporters.
According to Stephen Holder via Dov Kleiman, Richardson stays after practice every day to sign autographs for fans.
Reportedly team officials need to “drag” Richardson into the facility to get him to stop signing.

This is an amazing gesture from Richardson who continues to impress on and off the field.
The rookie has already been named the Colts’ starting quarterback for Week 1.
He may have plenty of ups and downs this year but the future looks bright in Indianapolis.
The Colts have been looking for a franchise quarterback ever since Andrew Luck abruptly retired.
It seems they have finally found their man in Richardson.
Not much is expected from the Colts this season due to having a new coaching staff and a rookie quarterback.
But new Colts head coach Shane Steichen has experience working with young quarterbacks.
He helped mold Justin Herbert and Jalen Hurts into Pro Bowl players.
Now every Colts fan hopes he will be able to do the same thing with Richardson.
