Colts backup quarterback Joe Flacco took over for Anthony Richardson on Saturday, after Richardson left the game with a hip injury. Flacco came in to lead the Colts to a win over the Steelers. And after the game, he made a funny joke about the former Florida star calling him cool.

"His mom is 8 days older than I am, so there's no chance in the world he thinks I'm cool," Flacco told Aditi Kikhabwala of CBS.

The Colts held off the Steelers for a 27-24 win. Flacco completed 16 of his 24 passes for 168 yards, while tossing in two touchdowns with no interceptions. Steelers quarterback Justin Fields had over 350 all-purpose yards and three total touchdowns in the losing effort. He had 55 rushing yards and two touchdowns on the ground.

Colts running back Jonathan Taylor had 21 carries for 88 yards and a touchdown. Indianapolis wideout Josh Downs finished with eight catches for 82 yards and a touchdown. And Michael Pittman had six catches for 113 yards.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson gave an update on his hip injury after the team's 27-24 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. Richardson told reporters that his hip was "still sore" but then told Cameron Wolfe of the NFL Network that he would be fine. He then said he told Colts head coach Shane Steichen he could return after the initial hip injury but "tried to accelerate and couldn't push off like I wanted to."

The injury happened in the second quarter when Richardson took a hit to his right hip area after a 14-yard run. After missing two plays, the former Florida Gators QB returned only to leave again when he took a hard hit from Steelers linebacker Minkah Fitzpatrick late in the first quarter. Richardson tried to return to the game but was ruled out earlier in the second quarter.
