Colts considering Daniel Jones' future ahead of 2026 season

The Indianapolis Colts are evaluating quarterback Daniel Jones as they prepare for the 2026 NFL season. Jones, who has a contract that could reach $100 million over the next two years, faces scrutiny after inconsistent performances in previous seasons. Sources indicate that if he struggles again, particularly in the first half of the season, the Colts may consider benching him despite a shallow depth chart behind him. Jones' ability to maintain his starting job depends heavily on his performance in the offseason and early games. Head coach Shane Steichen's past decisions to bench players suggest no job is secure.
