Colts Sign QB Daniel Jones to $88M Deal

0:00On March 11, Indianapolis Colts have resigned starting quarterback Daniel Jones to a two-year deal worth $88 million, with incentives that could push it to $100 million. Earlier this week, the contract surfaced with details showing performance bonuses that led Jones hit up to $50 million per year, matching what his agents had asked for. Fans and analysts see this as a smart move for Jones after his recent Achilles injury, giving him big money and a short window to prove himself, wow. The Colts get an easy out-after-year one if things don't click. Compared to Sam Donnell's three-year pact at over $100 million last year, this pays Jones faster, despite his solid but not elite stats. In 14 starts, the team also saved cap space by avoiding a $37.8 million transition tag hit next season, setting them up well for the future as Jones works back to form.
