Colts Reportedly Make Massive Daniel Jones Decision Before Trade Deadline
The Indianapolis Colts reportedly decided Daniel Jones' future with the team before Sunday's loss to the Dallas Cowboys.
The Indianapolis Colts reportedly made their decision about quarterback Daniel Jones before their Week 9 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. According to The Ringer's Tom Pelissero, the team informed Jones on Saturday that he would not be traded. Despite speculation and interest from other teams, the Colts are determined to keep Jones in Indianapolis, even though they currently stand at a 2-7 record.
Jones completed 20 of his 34 passes for 180 yards, a touchdown, and an interception against the Cowboys defense in their most recent game. He has six touchdown passes and 10 interceptions this season but has yet to tally 270 passing yards in a single game. Colts sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport that the team was willing to listen to offers from several interested teams but ultimately decided to retain Jones amid their ongoing losing streak.
Jones expressed his commitment to the organization after the game, stating that he believes in head coach Shane Steichen and the direction the team is heading.
