The Indianapolis Colts have decided to continue their journey with Daniel Jones for a second season. After a promising start in 2025, the campaign took a downturn when Jones suffered an Achilles injury. Now, with a fresh 2-year deal potentially worth $100 million including incentives, Jones is set to prove that his early season performance wasn't just a fleeting moment but something he can sustain.
The key challenge for Jones will be staying healthy. Throughout his seven-year NFL career, he's only managed to play a full season once. This contract is not just about what he can do on the field, but also about his ability to remain in the game.
Jones recently joined The Ride With JMV to discuss his new contract and recovery journey. He expressed optimism about returning for Week 1 of the 2026 season and shared his thoughts on the anticipated return of wide receiver Alec Pierce.
