The former New York Giants quarterback tore his Achilles tendon in the Week 14 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, but is expected to be ready for the start of the season, according to the ESPN report.
The Colts used the transition tag on Jones before the March 3 deadline, not allowing him to hit the open market as a free agent. That tag allowed the Colts to match any offer made to Jones, and the quarterback would have received $37.833 million.

Jones signed with the Colts last season on a one-year deal and beat out Anthony Richardson for the starting job. The Colts, led by Jones and the team’s prolific offense, started 8-2.
However, Jones suffered a small fibula fracture in his leg and the team went 0-3 while trying to overcome him. Jones tore the Achilles tendon in his other leg.
