Anthony Richardson has been making a lot of waves in the NFL recently. Just out of his Redshirt Sophomore year, Richardson set the stage alight at the 2023 NFL Combine. Ranking 1st overall in the physical evaluation, Richardson is billed to be one of the top prospects in the NFL draft later this month. Many see him as the potential number 3 quarterback to get drafted behind Bryce Young and C.J. Stroud.
There is a lot in favor of Richardson as he has the physical talent to excel at the biggest stage football has to offer. Very much a dual-threat quarterback with his running abilities, he also has an explosive arm. He can throw the ball deep with relative ease. He is equally capable of breaking the pocket and making plays on the run, but at times it hampers his accuracy.
To go along with his physical attributes, Anthony Richardson is known for his leadership and good work ethic. He is touted as a potentially good starting QB in a couple of seasons.
