The Colts felt confident enough in his recovery to sign Jones to two-year, $88 million contract extension with $50 million guaranteed and incentives that could raise the value to $100 million. Given Jones' shaky track record as a starting NFL quarterback, the contract was risky for the Colts independent of his injury.

Jones' $88M extension hinges on proving 2025 success wasn't a small-sample fluke.

The Colts signed Jones to a two-year, $88 million contract extension with $50 million guaranteed and incentives that could raise the value to $100 million, betting on his recovery and performance. However, the source notes the contract was risky independent of his injury given Jones' shaky track record as a starting NFL quarterback. For the contract to pay off, Jones will need to prove that his early-season success in 2025 wasn't a fluky product of a small sample size, as his six previous seasons of NFL football were inconsistent.
