In a surprising turn of events, the Indianapolis Colts are handing over the reins to rookie quarterback Riley Leonard for their final regular season game against the Houston Texans. After a brief experiment with forty-four-year-old Philip Rivers, the team is now giving Leonard, a sixth-round pick from the 2021 draft, his chance to shine. Despite being eliminated from the playoffs, the Colts started Rivers in their week seventeen loss, treating it as a farewell to the veteran. Leonard, who led Notre Dame to a national championship appearance, has played in four games this season, and with nothing left to play for but pride, hes expected to get plenty of reps in the Texans matchup, marking a fresh end to an unusual season.
