Daniel Jones Linked to Colts by B/R

The Indianapolis Colts are persevering with to be linked with quarterbacks within the NFL Draft, free agent quarterbacks, doable traded quarterbacks, and gamers who would possibly sooner or later take into account enjoying quarterback.

Clearly that is an exaggeration (possibly), however the Colts want a quarterback, and the newest to be linked to Indianapolis is pending free agent Daniel Jones of the New York Giants.

Bleacher Report (B/R) pegged six locations for Jones and made the case for the Colts. 

“The Colts have introduced accomplished interviews with Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator Dan Quinn, Inexperienced Bay Packers particular groups coach Wealthy Bisaccia and Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan,” wrote Kristopher Knox of B/R. 

“After discovering a coach, discovering a brand new quarterback can be precedence No. 1 in Indianapolis.”

Knox acknowledges that the Colts look extra prone to draft a quarterback than to make an enormous splash in free company or a commerce.

“Armed with the fourth decide in April’s draft, Indianapolis could also be extra prone to roll the cube on a rookie like Ohio State’s C.J. Stroud or Alabama’s Bryce Younger,” wrote Knox “Nevertheless, it ought to take into account all choices this offseason, together with Jones.”

Jones’ fashion in New York could be a great match for what must be the strengths of the Colts personnel: the working recreation. Jones rushed for 708 yards and 7 touchdowns final season, serving to to maintain defenses off-balance.

“Jones led a run-heavy Giants offense this season, pairing with star working again Saquon Barkley to forge one of many league’s finest backfield duos,” wrote Knox. “In Indianapolis, he might type the same tandem with 2021 speeding chief Jonathan Taylor.”

The Colts will seemingly have the cash accessible in the event that they needed to go for Jones, but it surely’s extremely unlikely he will get out of New York. Jones had a break-through season below first-year head coach Brian Daboll, and he’ll be a precedence re-signing for the Giants.

The Colts will proceed to be linked to accessible quarterbacks seemingly till April twenty eighth, the primary evening of the NFL Draft.  

However the possibilities of Daniel Jones being a Colt are slim.
