Daniel Jones underwent surgery Tuesday in New York that is expected to sideline him for six to eight months, giving the Indianapolis Colts quarterback the ability to be fully cleared for the start of next summer's training camp, sources told ESPN.
The belief still is that Jones will play next year in Indianapolis, but his contract expires after this season and he is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent.
A training camp return would be an aggressive timeline for Jones, but the Colts think it's possible -- and this thinking is going to inform their offseason approach to free agency, a team source told ESPN's Stephen Holder.
