In 13 starts during his first season with the Colts, Jones completed 261 of 384 pass attempts (68.0%) for 3,101 passing yards, 19 passing touchdowns, and 8 interceptions, plus 5 rushing touchdowns. His production tapered later in the season after defenses had more video to study. The 'glass half full' view holds that Jones was in the midst of a career year when fully healthy, leading a historically elite league offense on a team that sat 8-2. The 'glass half empty' view suggests Jones showed regression signs before injuries and is a system quarterback heavily reliant on Jonathan Taylor's workhorse role to open up the passing game.
