Something Didn’t Sound Right About Premier NFL Prospect Anthony Richardson’s 13 Y/O Brother During a Draft Interview

Draft day is a big moment for every athlete who wants to make it in the NFL. It is also a massive day for the families of football players who see the dreams of their loved ones come true. Anthony Richardson was one such football player who realized his dream of making it to the league in the 2023 NFL draft. But fans noticed something when the QB’s 13-year-old brother spoke during a draft interview.

The Indianapolis Colts picked up Anthony Richardson in the first round of the NFL draft this year. He went high in the draft that saw most of the top players in his position make a big impact. But just before the process started, the Florida Gators quarterback spoke to the media with his family. And that is when people noticed that something didn’t sound right about his younger brother. But what was it?

The Anthony Richardson family interview 

When Anthony Richardson made an appearance on the 2023 Draft red carpet, he was with his younger brother and mother. NFL Network’s Melissa Stark stopped the family for a quick chat. It is there that Richardson’s brother shocked everyone watching with his deep voice. His neck tattoo was another factor that stole the show.

“This is very special to me, especially because I look up to him as much, and I’ve always wanted to be like him,” Corey said about the new Colts QB.

He had a smooth voice and the confidence of his brother, who is seven years his senior. The younger Richardson even checked himself out on the broadcast monitor, confirming to Stark that he indeed looked good. Doesn’t everyone wish they had that confidence when they were 13?

Maybe one day Corey comes to the draft as a prospect himself. Till then, he will be there for his brother on every adventure possible.

Corey moves his brother to tears 

When the Colts picked up Richardson fourth overall, it was an emotional time for him. But it was his brother Corey who moved him to tears with a message. He told his older brother that he was proud of him, his achievements and the man he has become. It could move any older brother to tears.

Anthony broke into tears after hearing Corey’s message and quipped that his brother wanted him to cry. “Goodness gracious, man. Trying to get all the tears out of me,” Richardson said. He then asked Corey to always be the best version of himself.

Richardson, who has played just 22 games for the Gators, is going into a Colts roster that desperately needs a quarterback after a dismal last season. And if his short career and Combine performance are anything to go by, the franchise fans are in for a treat when they watch the self proclaimed Cam Jackson.
