Jones cleared for full 11-on-11 participation at camp after Achilles injury recovery.

Daniel Jones confirmed on The Pat McAfee Show that he will fully participate in 11-on-11 team drills when Colts training camp begins, returning to full participation approximately seven and a half months after suffering an Achilles tear in Week 14 against Jacksonville. Jones stated he is "ready to go" and had already participated in seven-on-seven drills during OTAs with continued extra sprint work. The source notes this removes a major question for Indianapolis, as the Colts need Jones working with the first-team unit to build chemistry and prove that his pre-injury success—3,101 passing yards, 19 passing touchdowns, and five rushing touchdowns in 13 starts with third-ranked yards per attempt and sixth-ranked QBR among qualifying quarterbacks—can carry over. However, the source emphasizes Jones still must prove on the field that the Achilles is not limiting his movement, confidence, or ability to operate under pressure.
