Gardner Minshew came on in relief of Richardson and led the Colts to a touchdown drive in the second quarter. The Colts eventually cruised to a 31-20 road victory.

Prior to leaving the game, Richardson was the leading fantasy scorer in Week 2. Thanks to his two rushing touchdowns, Richardson had 17.75 points before leaving the game.

Richardson will need to pass the league’s concussion protocol in order to play in the Colts’ Week 3 game against the Baltimore Ravens.
