The Indianapolis Colts have announced that former Duke Blue Devil Daniel Jones will be the team's Week 1 starting quarterback in a fairly surprising move. It looks like Indianapolis is out on Anthony Richardson, the franchise's former top-five draft choice, and will stick with the veteran to lead the charge offensively out of the gates.
Midway through the 2024 NFL season, it looked like Jones' tenure as a starting quarterback in the league was over after the New York Giants, the organization that drafted the former Blue Devil with the sixth overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, released him after six seasons.
