Summary
Daniel Jones, 28, is reportedly returning to the Indianapolis Colts on a two-year, $88 million deal that can be worth up to $100 million with incentives. The contract is the largest two-year deal in NFL history. Jones is guaranteed $50 million at signing and $60 million for injury. He is expected to be ready for the start of the season after tearing his Achilles in a Week 14 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Our Reading
The game followed a familiar script.
Jones gets hurt, the team goes 0-3, and then he signs a massive contract.
He was having a career year before the injury, but let’s be real, he’s not the first quarterback to get paid big after a major setback.
The Colts used the transition tag to keep him from hitting the open market, and now he’s getting paid like a top quarterback.
This one feels recognizable early.
The Colts will be counting on Jones to lead them back to the playoffs, but can he stay healthy?
Original Observation: The Colts are banking on Jones’ past performance and hoping he can replicate it despite the injuries.
