Colts Tag Jones; Pass on Hendrickson
March 3, 2026·about 1 hour ago·via FOX Sports
The Indianapolis Colts place the transition tag on quarterback Daniel Jones, guaranteeing him $37.8 million for 2026 while retaining the right to match any outside offers. This rare move, the first on a QB since 1996, comes as Jones recovers from a torn Achilles that sidelined him after an 8-2 start. The tag prevents tagging wide receiver Alec Pierce, who now heads to free agency. Meanwhile, the Bengals opt not to tag edge rusher Trey Hendrickson, letting him test the market unrestricted.
