The Indianapolis Colts will have their chance at revenge to kick off the 2024 regular season.
After being knocked out of playoff contention during the final week of the 2023 season due to a heartbreaking loss against the Houston Texans, the Colts will host the reigning division champs to begin the new campaign.
A matchup between Anthony Richardson and C.J. Stroud is the perfect way to kick off the new season, adding another feather in the cap of what could be a long-time rivalry.

The Colts and Texans split their matchups during the regular season in 2023. Indy won 31-20 in the Week 2 matchup on the back of two rushing touchdowns from Richardson before he left the game due to a concussion.
The Texans got their revenge in Week 18 when it mattered most. In a win-and-in game, Houston outlasted the Colts by a score of 23-19—propelling them to the playoffs and ending the Colts' season.
The AFC South will be a packed race in 2024, and what better way to commence the new season with an intense divisional battle.
