The wiki doesn't have a specific update on whether Daniel Jones will play in a Colts preseason game. Here's what I do know from the available info:
- Jones is recovering from a torn Achilles suffered in Week 14 of 2025 (from the Daniel Jones page).
- The Colts project him returning for Week 1 of the regular season, and he's been upbeat about his recovery, participating in OTAs and minicamp (from the Daniel Jones page).
- HC Shane Steichen has confirmed the Colts will have joint practices with the Patriots (1 day) and Falcons (2 days) during the preseason (from the Indianapolis Colts page).
- Behind Jones, Riley Leonard and Anthony Richardson are competing for the backup role, with Steichen saying neither currently holds an edge (from the Daniel Jones page).
The wiki doesn't state definitively whether Jones will take preseason snaps. However, given he's coming off a serious Achilles injury and the team is prioritizing his Week 1 readiness, it's common for starters recovering from major injuries to be held out of preseason games — or see only very limited action. I'd keep an eye on Colts camp reports as preseason approaches for that final call.
