Anthony Richardson

ESPN’s Stephen Holder reports Anthony Richardson (shoulder) is throwing “roughly 40 passes” per day.

Richardson continues to rehab his surgically repaired shoulder, but appears to be in a good spot as far as recovery is concerned. According to Holder, Richardson’s performance coach has asked him to “pump the brakes” on his pass volume, but said Richardson “didn’t want to hear it” when he was viewing a throwing session. Richardson ramping things up this early in the offseason is a good sign. Last year’s No. 4 overall pick looked like a fantasy stud in the four games he played in last season, but will need to do a better job of protecting his body and avoiding some of the hard hits he absorbed as a rookie.
