Colts Lose Jones, Turn to Leonard

In a sudden turn of events, the Indianapolis Colts starting quarterback, Daniel Jones, suffered a non-contact Achilles injury during their Week Fourteen game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Jones, 28, was ruled out for the rest of the game and potentially future matchups, leaving the team to rely on backup quarterback Riley Leonard. Leonard, a sixth-round pick in 2025, had limited NFL experience but impressive college stats. The Colts now face a challenge with their third-string quarterback, as original starter Anthony Richardson remains on injured reserve with a fractured orbital bone. DNN | The Daily News Now!
