Yahoo Sports NFL on Daniel Jones
From the article
Will he decline to take the dead money on Daniel Jones' contract and give him another year removed from his achilles injury to find his groove again under Steichen? Doesn't sound appealing to anyone reading, but certainly an option... The league has generally been higher on Jones than the public has. Tom Pelissero floated the possibility on The Ringer Show, and the more I've thought about it, the more I believe it's a possibility. Minnesota and Kevin O'Connell have valued Jones in the past, and the Vikings aren't necessarily tied to Kyler Murray long-term.
STACKED’s take
Jones' future uncertain; trade to Vikings possible despite Achilles recovery.
The Colts face a quarterback decision under new GM leadership. One path involves declining dead money on Jones' contract and giving him another year removed from his Achilles injury to find his groove under Steichen, though the source notes this doesn't sound appealing to most. Another path could involve trading Jones; the source cites Tom Pelissero's reporting that the league has been generally higher on Jones than the public, and notes Minnesota and Kevin O'Connell have valued Jones in the past, with the Vikings not necessarily tied to Kyler Murray long-term. A trade isn't impossible to imagine, which would give the Colts an opportunity to reset at quarterback while allowing a new regime to build around a fresh roster.
