Colts Reportedly Make Daniel Jones Trade Decision as Rumors Pick up Steam

Tom Pelissero reported Indianapolis told interested teams it is keeping Daniel Jones, despite multiple trade inquiries and Vikings interest.

  • The Indianapolis Colts have fielded calls from multiple teams interested in acquiring quarterback Daniel Jones, though NFL insider Tom Pelissero reported Saturday the team has turned down offers and does not plan to trade him before next week.
  • Facing a 2-6 record and initiating a multi-year rebuild, the Colts have traded key veterans Quenton Nelson and DeForest Buckner, with assistant general manager Ed Dodds now leading the front office after the firing of longtime general manager Chris Ballard.
  • While the Baltimore Ravens acquired Jacoby Brissett, the Minnesota Vikings remain a potential suitor for Jones, whose $88 million contract includes a $44 million signing bonus making his remaining salary relatively affordable for teams seeking emergency quarterback support.
  • Head coach Shane Steichen confirmed that running back Jonathan Taylor and other trade candidates will play Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys, stating that Jones "gives us the best chance to win right now."
  • With the NFL trade deadline approaching on Tuesday, November 10th, Indianapolis continues evaluating roster adjustments, while backup Anthony Richardson remains the team's secondary quarterback option as the organization balances immediate competition with long-term rebuild goals.
