In Week 17, the Indianapolis Colts were still fighting for a spot in the playoffs. The team was 7-8 and had a winnable game vs. the Giants who were 2-13. However, New York pulled off the 45-33 upset and ended the Colts’ chance to make the playoffs this year. Starting QB Anthony Richardson was out with an injury against New York.
Veteran Joe Flacco started in Week 17 and reports came out today that he will start again in Week 18. Anthony Richardson is still dealing with a back injury and the Colts have nothing to play for. This will be his eighth game of the season and sixth start for Indianapolis in 2024. The Colts are at home in Week 18 to face the Jacksonville Jaguars.
