Daniel Jones suffers Achilles injury in shocking Colts blow
NY Post
The sight of Daniel Jones collapsed on the field reaching for his leg looked all too painfully familiar.
Jones suffered a non-contact Achilles injury in his right leg – feared to be a rupture that will keep him out for the rest of this season and could carry over into 2026 – in the first half of the Colts’ 36-19 loss to the Jaguars.
“Not for sure,” head coach Shane Steichen said, “but it’s not looking good.”
It was just 25 months ago that Jones’ right leg gave out on him while he was backpedaling in the pocket for the Giants against the Raiders. He suffered a torn ACL that ended his 2023 season.
Just like then, Jones was dealing with a pre-existing injury Sunday when the worst happened.
Jones, 28, was playing through a fractured fibula for the third straight while wearing a hybrid thigh pad/shin guard on his left leg designed by one of his former Duke teammates. He planted that leg but went down in the pocket as he threw a pass.

The alliance between the Mara Family and the Tisch Family has, by and large, been the gold standard for all such partnership agreements. From the moment Wellington Mara and Robert Tisch entered into their 50-50 arrangement at the top of the Giants’ organizational flow chart on Feb. 21, 1991, this has been a model affiliation.
