Struggling Colts QB Daniel Jones admits he’s ‘not happy’ watching Indy’s front office strip away teammates

Daniel Jones said he was unhappy to see Indianapolis trade away several teammates, though he stressed that the players’ job is to prepare and compete with those who take their places. The Colts’ run of departures comes as they sit at 2-7, raising questions about the team’s direction and the support around their quarterback.

Before the trade deadline, acting general manager Ed Dodds dealt guard Quenton Nelson, defensive tackle DeForest Buckner and receivers Keenan Allen and Josh Downs. Jones has thrown six touchdown passes and 10 interceptions in nine games, with a 68.9 passer rating. The article also says Indianapolis rejected a reported offer of second- and fifth-round picks for Jonathan Taylor, while a potential trade for Grover Stewart fell through.
