In a dramatic comeback, Anthony Richardson powered the Indianapolis Colts to a 28-27 victory over the New York Jets on Sunday. Returning to the starting lineup after a two-game benching, Richardson threw for 272 yards and scored three touchdowns, including a game-winning 4-yard rushing score with just 46 seconds remaining.
The Jets had seized a 27-22 lead late in the fourth quarter on Anders Carlson‘s 35-yard field goal with 2:41 to play. Richardson responded with a clutch six-play, 70-yard drive, capping it off with his second rushing touchdown of the day to seal the win.
The victory lifts the Colts to 5-6, while the Jets drop to 3-8, suffering their seventh loss in their last eight games.
