2025 Season Outlooks

Jones is expected to enter Colts camp in a quarterback competition with former top draft pick Anthony Richardson. While some have speculated that Richardson will get the first chance, training camp practices and consistency will ultimately be the deciding factor in who starts Week 1. Jones will likely play at some point in 2025, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's worth rostering in anything other than Superflex/two-QB formats. Jones averaged just 15.1 Fantasy points per game -- the 35th-most Fantasy points per game in 2024 despite the Giants providing him an elite WR1 in Malik Nabers and a much-improved offensive line for the first six weeks before injuries. In 2023, Jones averaged just 10.2 Fantasy points per game, 47th-most among all QBs.

Jones signed with the Colts and beat out Anthony Richardson for the team's starting job. The 2019 first-round pick struggled with injuries (zero full seasons) and ineffectiveness (career 6.5 YPA) during six seasons with the Giants. After throwing 24 touchdowns in 13 games as a rookie, Jones totaled 45 pass TDs in 57 games the following five seasons. He finished one season better than 15th in fantasy PPG and that eighth-place finish in 2022 was primarily a product of big-time rushing (120-708-7). The 28-year-old isn't going to move the needle as a passer, but he could land on the streaming radar due to his legs (60-plus carries in four of the last five seasons). Especially considering that early struggles could lead to a benching in favor of Richardson, Jones is, at best, a QB2 only worth drafting in superflex.
