The Colts should be considered winners for this signing. They are paying Jones $14 million for a year, but it's worth the money. They have to find out if Richardson is the future of the franchise, and there's no better way to do that than through competition with a quarterback like Jones who's itching to start under center again.

Jones wants to start again, and in order to do so, he'll have to beat Anthony Richardson, the Colts’ 2023 No. 4 pick, for the job

Daniel Jones is getting a reported 1-year deal counting $14 million toward the 2025 salary cap. Anthony Richardson is set to count $9.2 million.
