Colts Sign Daniel Jones, Create Competition for Anthony Richardson

Former New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones has signed a one-year, $14 million deal with the Indianapolis Colts, aiming to compete for the starting position against Anthony Richardson. This move comes after Richardson's inconsistent performance in his first two seasons, where he struggled with accuracy and production, leading to speculation about his future as the starter. General manager Chris Ballard emphasized the need for competition, indicating that Richardson's job is not guaranteed. Jones, who faced a tough year with the Giants, had previously been benched and ended the 2024 season with disappointing stats. The arrival of Jones raises questions about Richardson's development and the Colts' confidence in their 2023 first-round pick. As the competition heats up, both players will look to prove their worth in training camp and the upcoming season.
