After boasting an 8-2 record entering the second half of the 2025 NFL season, the Indianapolis Colts decided to keep Daniel Jones as their starting quarterback and make win-now moves to give him the right pieces to succeed.

Nine weeks into the 2026 campaign, the Colts made a U-turn and decided to dismantle the project. They traded multiple stars, including Quenton Nelson (to Seattle), Josh Downs (to Kansas City), Keenan Allen (to San Francisco) and DeForest Buckner (also to San Francisco) ahead of the deadline.

After firing general manager Chris Ballard, the Colts hit the reset button and will try to build a championship-caliber team from scratch again.

Daniel Jones Addresses Colts Front Office Decisions

On Wednesday, Jones addressed these moves. He shared he was not happy with the situation, while noting that the decisions were out of his control.

“Honestly, you’re not happy to see it,” he said. “You’re a player, and you’re going out there competing, and doing everything you can to win. So you’re not happy to see a lot of those decisions, but like I said, that’s outside of our control, and our job is to play and be prepared and play well. So, like I said, we got a lot of trust in the guys coming into those spots, and we’ll be ready to go.”

Jones has struggled to be the player he was last season. Ahead of Week 10, he has a 60.3% completion rate, 10 interceptions and only six touchdown passes. Indianapolis will face the Dolphins next to try to win their third game of the season.
