Colts Enter Draft with Promising News on QB Daniel Jones and Looking to Make some Deals

Chris Ballard said Jones is throwing and moving well as the Colts consider moving up, back or around the draft for more picks.

  • Quarterback Daniel Jones is 'progressing really well' from his December Achilles injury, throwing and moving as Indianapolis Colts general manager Chris Ballard prepares for the NFL draft beginning Thursday.
  • Receiver Alec Pierce and Pro Bowl defensive tackle DeForest Buckner also remain on schedule with ankle and back surgery recoveries, with Ballard expressing satisfaction that all three players appear progressing well.
  • Quarterback Anthony Richardson continues training independently in Jacksonville, Florida, though Ballard noted, "We've had some talks but nothing's come to fruition at this time." Richardson remains an Indianapolis Colt.
  • Cornerback Kenny Moore has requested a change of scenery; the Colts may have replacements ready in Justin Walley and Hunter Wohler, both healthy after suffering injuries last summer.
  • With seven draft picks, Ballard plans to move up or down the board to acquire additional talent, potentially addressing Moore and Richardson situations as the draft unfolds this week.
