The Colts are fielding calls on Daniel Jones as Tuesday's trade deadline nears
Indianapolis has taken calls from several teams on quarterback Daniel Jones and is willing to listen to offers before Tuesday's NFL trade deadline.

Jonathan Taylor is not the only big name the Indianapolis Colts are willing to discuss.
The Colts have received calls from multiple teams about quarterback Daniel Jones and are open to hearing offers before Tuesday's 4 p.m. Eastern trade deadline (3 p.m. Central), according to league sources cited by ESPN and NFL Network.
Jones is still slated to start Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys. Indianapolis is 2-6 and is looking to collect draft capital while trimming financial risk.
Who has called
The Baltimore Ravens checked in on Jones before trading for Jacoby Brissett. The Minnesota Vikings have also come up in speculation because of Jones' history with the franchise and a defense built to contend.
The Colts are not interested in moving anyone unless they believe the offer is fair. They are expected to keep taking calls right up to the deadline.
The money question
Jones signed a two-year, $88 million deal in March that included a $44 million signing bonus. He has a $10.51 million injury guarantee for 2027 that becomes fully guaranteed on March 15 if he is still on the roster.
If Indianapolis falls out of playoff contention, the team may not want to risk that guarantee with an injury. That could open the door to a benching. Sources said Jones could also waive the guarantee if he wanted to play elsewhere.
Coach Shane Steichen gave Jones a vote of confidence this week, saying, "Daniel gives us the best chance to win right now."
