INDIANAPOLIS -- Colts backup quarterback Anthony Richardson suffered an eye injury while working with a resistance band during his pregame warmup, forcing Indianapolis to declare Richardson inactive for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals . Richardson required hospitalization according to ESPN.

Richardson's injury elevates rookie Riley Leonard to the backup job behind Daniel Jones , and it leaves the Colts with only two quarterbacks available for Sunday's game.

Richardson, who lost an open competition with Jones for the starting job in training camp, has been Jones's primary backup all season, playing 14 snaps in mop-up duty against Tennessee and Las Vegas. He has thrown only two passes, getting a deflected completion to himself for nine yards against the Raiders.
