Daniel Jones is currently shredding his Achilles recovery protocol, and with Chris Ballard officially endorsing his progress, he is the locked-and-loaded starter for Indy in 2026. Before the tear, Jones was a high-level efficiency engine, ranking No. 6 in Dropback EPA with a career-high 68.0% Completion Percentage and a 100.2 Passer Rating that screams high-end fantasy value.

With Anthony Richardson essentially out of the picture and Riley Leonard looming as the No. 2 insurance policy, the runway is clear for Jones to be the undisputed centerpiece of this Colts offensive machine.
