Colts Place Daniel Jones on Injured Reserve
Full Transcript
Colts quarterback Daniel Jones is going to miss the rest of the season with a torn Achilles. The team formally removed him from the active roster on Tuesday by placing him on injured reserve as he begins his recovery process following the injury he sustained in Sunday's loss to the Jaguars.
Jones is not under contract for 2026, leaving him to determine his future once he has rehabilitated his Achilles. In a related move, the Colts are expected to sign quarterback Philip Rivers to the practice squad after a workout on Monday.
Additionally, the team is anticipated to sign quarterback Brett Rypien to the 53-man roster due to Riley Leonard's knee soreness after his relief appearance on Sunday. The Colts also announced that cornerback Chris Lammons will join Jones on injured reserve due to a foot injury sustained on Sunday.
To bolster their roster, they signed cornerback Cameron Mitchell to the active roster and cornerback Troy Pride to the practice squad.
