Show Notes
The Indianapolis Colts have placed the transition tag on quarterback Daniel Jones, valued at $37.83 million for the 2026 season. This move allows them to match any offer he receives in free agency while negotiating a long-term deal. However, it means wide receiver Alec Pierce will become an unrestricted free agent unless an extension is agreed upon before free agency starts on March 11th at 4 PM Eastern. The Colts are taking a risk by securing Jones, as his future is uncertain due to a torn Achilles, and the Vikings could make a strong offer. Meanwhile, Pierce may attract bigger offers from other teams, potentially disrupting the Colts core.
