Cut Daniel Jones Post June 1st, 2027 = Save $38 million. Should the Colts move on from their starting QB one year after signing his extension with the team, they could stand to save a significant amount of 2027 cap space.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Jones likely cut post-June 1st 2027 to save $38M after rough 2026 start.

Starting QB likely to be cut following tumultuous 2026 season start, one year after signing extension; not in future plans for new regime. Cutting post-June 1st 2027 saves $38M in cap space; cutting pre-June 1st saves only $11.6M. Timing after June 1st would maximize savings but delay availability of cap space until well after first waves of free agency.
