BREAKING: The #Colts and QB Daniel Jones have agreed to a 2-year, $88M deal that could be worth up to $100M, multiple sources tell me.

He gets $50M in the first year and it’s the largest 2-year contract in history. Both sides wanted this to get done, and it officially makes

I'm shocked. That is way to much coming off of that injury.

He has a great agent

It's a 2-year deal. He'll be the 16th highest paid QB in the league in '26.

Reading more about this. It's not near as bad as I thought. We have an out after this season if he doesn't play well.

So if things go south the new GM can start new. He better be a true franchise QB that can carry a team at this price. Smells of desperation to me. Hope I’m wrong

44 million dollar signing bonus with a 5.49 million dollar base in 2026. Without void years, that’s a cap hit around 27 million, which would save Indy around 10 million vs the cap

Yeah, I’ll just say it could have been a LOT worse. He’s really only tied to the Colts thru next season.

This was a move made out of desperation. They’re praying that the way he played early last year was more than just the product of a really weak schedule, which I don’t believe.

The plus side is the new regime can start fresh after everyone inevitably gets fired after next year.

@AlbertBreer
Colts QB Daniel Jones is signing a two-year, $88 million deal to stay in Indianapolis. Details on the agreement ...

• His base pay is $50 million in 2026 ($12.2M more than the tag), with a chance to earn $6 million more in incentives.

• His base pay is $38 million in 2027 ($10M of which is guaranteed), with a chance earn another $6 million more in incentives.

• That brings the max value to $100 million over two years, which, as we've reported, was where Jones wanted to be.

• As part of the incentives, Jones gets $100,000 per win (so long as he plays at least 50% of the offensive snaps in the game) over the next two years.
