Explore our top Anthony Richardson NFL player prop predictions, crafted from the best NFL odds, for Sunday's L.A. Rams vs. Indianapolis Colts matchup.

Rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson of the Indianapolis Colts returned to practice this week and has been officially named the starter for the upcoming game against the L.A. Rams, after missing their Week 3 win over the Baltimore Ravens due to a concussion he sustained the previous Sunday.

In the Week 2 victory over the Houston Texans, Richardson rushed for two touchdowns in the first quarter before exiting the game, becoming the third QB in NFL history to achieve three-plus rushing TDs over his first two career games.

Here are our best Anthony Richardson NFL player prop predictions, which accompanies our Rams vs. Colts predictions for the Week 4 matchup (odds via our best NFL betting sites; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).

Anthony Richardson NFL player prop predictions for Week 4

Anthony Richardson player props

Anthony Richardson Over 8.5 rush attempts (-114 via FanDuel) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Richardson had 10 carries in his first NFL matchup versus the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 1. Before he was forced to exit Week 2 at Houston, the rookie had three carries and two touchdowns.

Despite Richardson missing six quarters of football, only running back Zack Moss has more carries this season for Indianapolis (48). Richardson could lead the Colts’ run attack if they must chase the game, such is the dual threat he poses.

Shop around for this play. Most books offer 9.5 carries, however FanDuel has the advantage with its 8.5 Over/Under.

Anthony Richardson anytime TD scorer (+140 via Caesars) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

There's a substantial swing between some of our major books on this play. DraftKings has Richardson priced as low as -105 as a touchdown scorer. He's +110 at FanDuel and bet365, but the real value is with Caesars, who has the price at +140.

In just one and a half games of professional football, Richardson proved to be a major threat on the Colts’ offense. He averages more than a TD per game and had two in his last outing. We can’t bet against that form.

Anthony Richardson Over 194.5 passing yards (-114 via FanDuel) ⭐⭐⭐

In the one full matchup he played so far, Richardson threw for 223 yards. He completed 24 of 37 pass attempts, a 64.9 percent completion percentage. Since keeping Seattle Seahawks QB Geno Smith to 112 passing yards in Week 1, the Rams’ defense gave up more than 205 passing yards in each of their other two contests this season.

FanDuel is the only book offering the total for this play under 200 yards. The Colts might not be able to rely on their rushing attack because the Rams’ offense will make this a game. Therefore, Richardson will be forced to pass. He's already shown that he's a competent passer. This Over is well within reach.
