Did the Indianapolis Colts make the right decision by bringing back Daniel Jones?
This is the question that ESPN NFL reporter Dan Graziano asked in a recent article of his. With mandatory minicamp beginning for many teams around the NFL, Graziano highlighted the one big question within each quarterback room.
No surprise when it comes to the Colts, but those unknowns are centered around Jones and his play in 2026, coming off a major injury.
"The Colts need Jones to be healthy," wrote Graziano, "which he has struggled to be throughout his NFL career. And they need him to perform the way he did before his injury, when he was among the top eight in completion percentage (68%) and Total QBR (63). There were other options on the QB market, but the Colts never wavered. They'd better hope that was the right decision. Jobs and the future direction of the franchise are riding on it."
From the jump this offseason, the Colts made it crystal clear that re-signing Jones was a priority. Although things took a turn at one point with Indianapolis using the transition tag, eventually a deal got done, with the Colts re-signing Jones to a two-year, $88 million deal.
