'I'd beat out Tom Brady': Anthony Richardson's confident camp quote sparks fan frenzy online
Anthony Richardson Says He'd Win Over Tom Brady in QB Battle: 'It's Me vs. Me' (Image Via X) If confidence had a face this NFL preseason, it would be wearing a Colts helmet with "Richardson" on the back. Fresh off injury and ready to reclaim QB1 status, Anthony Richardson lit up the internet with a quote that sent shockwaves through camp coverage not because he dissed anyone, but because he casually brought Tom Brady into the conversation. But don't get it twisted, Richardson isn't trying to outshine the GOAT. Instead, he's doubling down on a mentality that has Colts fans fired up: the only competition he sees is in the mirror. Anthony Richardson says even Tom Brady wouldn't stop him from earning the starting role Anthony Richardson didn't hold back when asked if he feels like the starting quarterback this year even though the Colts brought in veteran Daniel Jones this offseason. His response? Pure alpha energy. 'Even if they brought Tom Brady in here,' Richardson said, 'I'd just have to work and try to beat him out.' Yup. That Tom Brady. The second-year QB made it clear he wasn't talking trash or throwing shade, the quote was part of a larger answer about how he views competition. Richardson explained that he's not worried about who the Colts bring in, not Daniel Jones, not anyone because it's always 'me vs. me.' His focus is on putting in the work, not on comparing resumes. The Colts QB battle is technically on but Richardson looks locked in as the Week 1 starter On paper, the Colts have a 'competition' at quarterback. But in reality? It's Richardson's job to lose. Sportsbooks have him as the overwhelming favorite to start Week 1, with odds sitting around -350. Even GM Chris Ballard recently admitted they might've rushed Richardson into action a little too soon last season. After just four games and a shoulder injury that ended his rookie campaign early, the Colts are taking a more careful approach this year. But all signs point to Richardson being in control of the offense. At training camp, he's been sharper, more confident, and more vocal. That quote wasn't just a soundbite, it's a reflection of how he's carrying himself in Year 2. With raw athleticism, freakish tools, and now a more refined mental game, Richardson might not just be back. He might be dangerous.

NFL Insider Adam Schefter introduced this trade exchange to cyberspace Adam Schefter wrote on X, 'Trade: Raiders are sending CB Jakorian Bennett to the Eagles in exchange for DT Thomas Booker IV, per sources.'

Jakorian accumulated 58 total tackles, 39 solo tackles, 19 assist tackles, and 11 passes defended in a total of 24 games played. When many netizens were doubting Bennett's capabilities, one fan felt confident for him, 'Now look how he miraculously makes to pro bowl.' Who's going to take Bennett's place in Pete Carroll's team? Eagles (now, former) defensive tackle Thomas Booker IV. Let's discuss him. Philadelphia Eagles fans–Thomas Booker IV any good? When fans were doubting Jakorian's capabilities for the reigning champions–Philadelphia Eagles, they did not spare Las Vegas Raiders' newest entrant either.

Christian Wilkins was released from Las Vegas Raiders for kissing teammate on head On July 28, a source told Adam Schefter that Christian Wilkins was released by the Las Vegas Raiders for kissing a fellow team player on the head. The teammate took offense and complained to the human resources department. The department investigated the incident. Raiders head coach Pete Carroll did not want to comment on it– 'I have no comment to make. We made a decision on what we're doing, and we're moving with it.' Another Raiders DT, Adam Butler, told ESPN, 'Whatever you're going through as a person, athlete, non-athlete or whoever, whatever your struggle is, if you've got something going on in life, just talk to somebody. Get some therapy. Somebody out there in this world will hear you out.' Apart from this incident, another reason for Wilkins' departure was that he was recovering from a Jones fracture–a broken bone on the pinky toe side of the foot.
