Daniel Jones' contract incentives may spark trade talks before November deadline
NFL teams are weighing a trade for Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones before the November 10 deadline, as his $88 million contract’s performance incentives could make him attractive to a playoff-bound club, NBC Sports reported. Earlier reports noted that the approaching deadline has prompted interest in Jones from several clubs, with the Minnesota Vikings seen as the most likely destination, according to CBS Sports. Bleacher Report said ESPN reporter Adam Schefter floated the possibility that the Colts might move Jones, naming the Baltimore Ravens and the Vikings as potential suitors.
NBC Sports indicated the Vikings could pursue a quarterback trade if they lost their night game. CBS Sports also ranked ten veteran quarterbacks, including Mac Jones and Kirk Cousins, as potential trade targets before the deadline.
