## Resource

Could the Indianapolis Colts really extend Daniel Jones for $40 million or more per year? It sounds wild, but when you look at the NFL quarterback market, the Colts’ roster, and Daniel Jones’ potential fit in Shane Steichen’s offense, it’s not as crazy as it seems. In this video, we break down Daniel Jones’ contract outlook, how a Colts extension could work, and whether a $40M+ deal actually makes sense for Indianapolis. We’ll dive into recent QB contracts, cap implications, and what the Colts’ front office might be thinking moving forward. Is Daniel Jones worth $40 million per year? Would the Colts be making a smart long-term move or a massive gamble?
