Daniel Jones Fantasy Stats

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones (Achilles) was placed on Injured Reserve on Tuesday after suffering a season-ending torn Achilles in Sunday's loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Head coach Shane Steichen said Jones is expected to undergo surgery "within the week." It's a devastating injury for Jones and the Colts after an incredible start to his tenure in Indianapolis. The 28-year-old was on pace for a career-best season, completing 68% of his passes for 3,101 yards, 19 touchdowns, and eight interceptions while adding 45 carries for 164 yards and five touchdowns on the ground. With rookie quarterback Riley Leonard (knee) considered week-to-week with a PCL sprain and Anthony Richardson Sr. (eye) on Injured Reserve, the Colts signed 44-year-old Philip Rivers to their practice squad on Tuesday. Rivers is expected to be the starter eventually, but it's to be determined if he or Brett Rypien will start in a tough Week 15 matchup on the road against the Seattle Seahawks.

An MRI on Monday officially confirmed that Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones (Achilles) has torn his Achilles and will miss the rest of the season. Jones suffered the non-contact injury in the first quarter of a Week 14 loss to the Jaguars and was replaced by 6th-round rookie Riley Leonard. Anthony Richardson Sr. (eye) remains on IR and has not been cleared for football activities after a Week 6 pregame incident with a resistance band fractured his orbital bone, requiring surgery. Heading into Sunday, the only other quarterback in the building was practice squad veteran Brett Rypien, so the team is expected to add additional depth before a Week 15 matchup with the Seahawks. Playing over 75% of the Colts' offensive snaps on Sunday, Leonard threw for 145 yards, zero touchdowns, and an interception, while adding five yards and a rushing touchdown on the ground. With an unenviable schedule against the Seahawks, 49ers, and Jaguars, pass catchers Alec Pierce, Michael Pittman Jr., and Tyler Warren suddenly become less appealing plays for the fantasy playoffs, while Jonathan Taylor will likely be tasked with handling an even larger workload down the stretch.

Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen said that quarterback Daniel Jones' Achilles injury could be season-ending. Steichen couldn't confirm the exact severity or timeline, but he said that it's "not looking good." If Jones' season is officially over, it will be an abrupt ending to his Comeback Player of the Year candidacy. The former first-round pick out of Duke had drastically exceeded expectations during his first year with Indianapolis, completing 68% of his passes for 3,101 yards, 19 passing touchdowns, and eight interceptions. He also had 164 rushing yards and five rushing touchdowns. The Colts are already without Anthony Richardson Sr. (eye), so losing Jones for an extended period of time would bump Riley Leonard into the starting role. Indianapolis is 8-5 and would slot into the No. 7 seed in the AFC playoff picture if the season ended today.

The Indianapolis Colts have ruled out quarterback Daniel Jones (Achilles), who went down to the turf in Jacksonville without being contacted. It was an ugly scene, as Jones repeatedly slammed his helmet in frustration after being attended to by the trainers. The team subsequently ruled him out due to an Achilles injury, which was the initial concern. Jones had revived his career on a one-year deal with the Colts, who became one of the biggest surprises in the league by taking control of the AFC South. The veteran entered the week as the No. 8 overall fantasy quarterback, but could be looking at missing the rest of the season if imaging confirms a torn Achilles. Before leaving, Jones went 5-for-7 passing for 60 yards and an interception, adding one carry for four yards. Rookie Riley Leonard is now forced into action with Anthony Richardson Sr. (eye) still on Injured Reserve.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones has been managing a fractured fibula in recent weeks, which has noticeably impacted his mobility. His production has fallen off after an outstanding start to his Colts tenure early in the season. Over his first eight games, the former New York Giant completed 71.2% of his passes for 2,062 passing yards with 13 touchdowns to three interceptions, while adding 30 carries for 86 yards and four more scores on the ground. He ranked as the QB5 in total fantasy points per game during that time. Jones has remained solid overall, but as the schedule has gotten more challenging and injuries have mounted, he's become more mistake-prone, committing seven turnovers and taking 13 sacks in the past four games. He'll have an opportunity to bounce back in Week 14 against the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars, who have been a bottom-10 defense in terms of fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks this season.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones (fibula) was listed as a full participant in Wednesday's practice session, according to the team's official website. Jones' full participation on Wednesday is an estimation, as the Colts conducted a walk-through. It was reported last week that the 28-year-old signal-caller is playing through a fractured fibula, and his production has cooled off a bit in recent weeks after an excellent start to the season. Jones has completed 67.9% of his passes for 3,041 yards with 19 touchdowns and seven interceptions while adding 44 carries for 160 yards and five rushing touchdowns in 12 starts this season. The veteran quarterback will continue playing through the injury and will look to return to his early-season form for a big divisional game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 14.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones completed 14 of his 27 passes for 201 yards and two touchdowns while adding one yard on his lone carry in a 20-16 loss to the Houston Texans in Week 13. Jones found Alec Pierce and Tyler Warren for his touchdown passes in the contest but couldn't complete a pass on fourth down with 1:49 remaining in the game to give the Colts a chance at a comeback win. Reportedly playing through a fractured fibula, Jones has cooled off a bit in recent weeks. The veteran quarterback has thrown for 3,041 yards, 19 touchdowns, and seven interceptions while adding five rushing touchdowns in 12 games this year. He will now begin preparing to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars on the road in Week 14.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones (fibula) has been dealing with a fractured fibula, per reports, but he intends to play in Week 13 against the Houston Texans. Jones was limited in practice on Wednesday before practicing fully on Thursday and Friday. He draws a difficult matchup against a Houston defense that is allowing the fewest fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks this season. The tough matchup, coupled with Jones' injury, makes it tough to trust him in fantasy this weekend. Treat him as a low-end QB2 who can be benched if you have a better quarterback option on your bench.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones (leg) was a full participant in practice again on Friday and will be ready to go on Sunday for a divisional clash against the Houston Texans in Week 13, according to Joel A. Erickson of the Indianapolis Star. "We would never put him out there if we thought something could go wrong," head coach Shane Steichen said. The 28-year-old Jones is working through a fractured fibula, but he has been practicing and will continue to play through the injury moving forward. Jones is a leading candidate for Comeback Player of the Year in the AFC in 2025, throwing for 2,840 yards, 17 touchdowns, and five interceptions through the first 12 weeks. His leg injury will be something to closely monitor, though, and fantasy managers should consider him a QB2 this weekend against the No. 1 defense in the NFL.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones (leg), who has been dealing with a lower-leg injury, suffered a fracture in his fibula, sources told Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Despite dealing with a fracture in his fibula, Jones was a full participant in Thursday's practice, and one source said, "he looked good." The 28-year-old will continue to try and play through his injury as the Colts head into a Week 13 divisional matchup against the visiting Houston Texans and their top-ranked defense. Jones has surprisingly been a top-10 fantasy QB through 12 weeks in his first year with the Colts, throwing for 2,840 yards, 17 touchdowns, and seven interceptions in 11 games. He hasn't done much with his legs, though, and that should remain the case given his injury. In Week 13 in a bad matchup, fantasy managers in single-QB leagues should fade Jones.
