Summary
21-of-28 passing in Thursday’s intrasquad scrimmage extended Daniel Jones’s strong Colts camp, drawing emphatic praise from coach Shane Steichen after practice.
Jones also scrambled and rolled out effectively, reinforcing that he has recovered well from the torn Achilles that ended his 2025 season.
Steichen called the quarterback “on fire right now,” saying his sharp throwing is an encouraging sign for Indianapolis as Jones checks every box in his return.
Next week’s joint work and game against New England will offer Jones his first outside test of the offseason before a bigger measuring stick arrives in Week 1 against Baltimore.
