Colts QB Daniel Jones Cleared for Training Camp

Colts quarterback Daniel Jones said he is fully cleared to return to training camp after his Achilles injury ended his 2025 season. "I'm feeling good," he told The Pat McAfee Show on Monday, noting he will be ready for 11-on-11, full‑team drills this Wednesday. Jones, 29, re‑signed on a two‑year, $88 million contract that could rise to $100 million following the franchise tag. He had a breakout 2025 season, helping the Colts to an 8‑2 start before tearing his right Achilles in December and later suffering a hairline fibula fracture in his left leg.

The Colts will host the Baltimore Ravens in Week 1, and Jones said he still has some work to do but feels "really good" with his progress. While Jones is ready, top receiver Alec Pierce is on the PUP list after ankle surgery, and the team expects him to miss early training camp and the preseason.

Last season Jones set career highs in passing yards per attempt (8.1), QBR (63.0) and completion rate (68%). The Colts are eager to see him back in full form as they prepare for the upcoming season.
