NBC Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- The Indianapolis Colts have engaged in trade talks regarding quarterback Daniel Jones, with the Baltimore Ravens and Minnesota Vikings showing some level of interest, though only the Ravens have formally checked in.
- The Vikings appear to be the most likely contender to pursue Jones, especially if their starting quarterback suffers an injury, as they have a current need and Jones has prior experience with the team.
- Daniel Jones holds significant leverage in any potential trade due to his contract guarantees and personal preferences, which could influence whether a deal is completed or blocked.
- A trade for Jones could become more viable if the Vikings lose their upcoming game against the Bills, potentially prompting them to act quickly before the trade deadline.
- Jones playing and avoiding injury in the Colts' upcoming game against the Cowboys is crucial, as an injury could end trade possibilities, and the Colts may bench him early if a trade is imminent.
