Daniel Jones Leads Colts 2-0 NFL Season Start with Stellar Performance

Saquon Barkley, now a star running back with the Philadelphia Eagles, has expressed strong support for his former New York Giants teammate Daniel Jones, who is having a career resurgence as the starting quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts. After both players were released by the Giants, Barkley has been thrilled to see Jones excel, praising his work ethic, competitiveness, and the way he carries himself. Jones has led the Colts to a 2-0 start in the 2025 NFL season, ranking highly in key quarterback statistics such as completion rate and yards per attempt. Barkley, who recently rushed for over 2,000 yards and helped the Eagles win the Super Bowl, hopes Jones continues to perform at a high level and is excited to see Jones prove the doubters wrong. The Colts' offense ranks among the top in the league, with Jones having won the starting job over Anthony Richardson. Both Barkley and Jones have demonstrated significant success outside of New York, underscoring that their previous struggles were not due to their individual abilities.
