However, the Los Angeles Rams (2-1) pose a big-time threat on defense to Jones and Steichen. Also, the offensive side of the ball led by quarterback Matt Stafford, wide receiver Puka Nacua, and running back Kyren Williams, will give Indy's defense all it can handle.

ESPN's Adam Schefter said Daniel Jones' name belongs alongside several QBs who have become rejuvenated with new teams.

The Indianapolis Colts have been the surprise team of the 2025 season, as they are off to their first 3-0 start since 2009. A big reason for this is the play of new quarterback Daniel Jones, who scored six total touchdowns compared to zero turnovers through the first three games of the season.

Yes I absolutely think we need to take the Colts seriously. They’re currently Top 7 in total offense (2nd), points per game (2nd), total defense (7th), and points per game allowed (9th). Daniel Jones is playing the quarterback position legitimately WELL and everyone else around him seems to be following suit.

Indianapolis made its biggest headlines over the last two days at the cornerback position. The Colts waived 2023 second-rounder JuJu Brents, traded a sixth-round pick for Vikings cornerback Mekhi Blackmon and set up a Wednesday workout with former Bengals nickel Mike Hilton, hinting at the possibility of at least one more move to come.

Anthony Richardson made his first appearance this season in Week 3. Meanwhile, quarterback injuries have already hit some teams.

The Indiana home of late Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay has sold for $11.75 million—four months after he passed away.
