Colts quarterback Daniel Jones has heard the trade speculation. How could he not?

After the Colts traded Quenton Nelson and DeForest Buckner, other teams are likely to make inquiries about the availability of Jones, running back Jonathan Taylor and wide receiver Josh Downs, if they haven’t already. Stephen Holder of ESPN reports that the Colts have already received calls about Jones.

Jones called the swirling rumors unhelpful after the 27-23 loss to the Cowboys on Sunday, but added the team needs to do a better job handling things out of their control.

“There’s been plenty of distractions the last couple weeks with all the stuff that’s gone on, and it’s unfortunate we’re in that position,” Jones said. “But I think as players, your job is to focus as much on what’s in front of you. And playing quarterback, there’s a lot focusing on getting ready for a game. So, that was my approach.”

Jones, who was 20-of-34 for 180 yards with a touchdown and an interception in Sunday’s loss, was asked whether he expects to remain in Indianapolis after Tuesday’s trade deadline. He talked around the question.

“I believe in Shane [Steichen],” Jones said. “I believe in what we’re doing. I love playing for Shane. So, like I said, I hadn’t thought about it much. I’ve been so focused on Dallas and making sure I was ready to go today.”

Jones is likely to remain with the Colts for the rest of this season, Holder reports.
