The recently reeling Indianapolis Colts were already concerned about their prospects to get into the postseason, and that wasn't aided by a tough in-division loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 14 -- a third consecutive defeat and a fourth loss in five games.

But now, Indy is dealing with arguably the most brutal news it could have had at this point in the season: losing resurgent quarterback Daniel Jones to a season-ending Achilles tear suffered against the Jags.

It's an awful setback, both for Indianapolis' own bounce-back this year from a frustrating finish in 2024, and for Jones, too.
