Should I Start Daniel Jones?

Vikings Could Make an Offer to Daniel Jones

Tuesday, March 3, 7:06 AM

The Minnesota Vikings could make an offer to Indianapolis Colts impending free-agent quarterback Daniel Jones (Achilles) in free agency if the Colts use the transition tag on him, according to ESPN's Peter Schrager. If the Vikings pursue Jones in free agency, the Colts would have the right to match any offer. The transition tag would pay Jones $37.8 million in 2026, so the Vikings would have to offer him at least that much to make him consider leaving Indianapolis. The 28-year-old former sixth overall pick by the New York Giants in 2019 out of Duke looked great in 13 starts with the Colts in 2025 before tearing his Achilles in Week 14 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Colts have made it clear they view Jones as their starter going forward if they can bring him back, but reuniting with Vikings head coach and QB whisperer Kevin O'Connell in Minnesota could be very attractive to Jones. Stay tuned.
