Colts' Quarterback Daniel Jones Willing to Play through Fractured Fibula, Colts Headed into Texans Matchup.
In a surprising turn of events, Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones has been determined to play through a fractured fibula, despite being listed as injured. According to the NFL Network, Jones was seen participating in full practice on Thursday, which indicates that he's still determined to be on the field this Sunday against the Texans. This decision comes after Jones initially revealed that he had an unknown injury before it was clarified that his fractured fibula had been plaguing him for some time.
Jones' decision is likely influenced by the Colts' impressive 8-3 record in the AFC South, with many speculating that a strong finish to the season could land him a lucrative contract with the team. If the Colts continue their winning streak, it may be difficult for Jones to leave the franchise and seek a bigger payday elsewhere.
However, there are rumors of a potential reunion between Daniel Jones and his old team, the Minnesota Vikings, amid a struggling quarterback situation. ESPN has reported that Jones' name has been included in discussions with the Vikings about a possible return, which could alter the trajectory of his career.
Jones joined the Colts last season after backing up Sam Darnold with the Giants. The decision to sign him to a one-year deal was seen as low-risk and high-reward, given the quarterback's underwhelming performances with New York.

i think this is so cool how determined dan jones is to play through his injury... like he's not gonna let a little fracture stop him from leading his team to victory 
but at the same time, it's also kinda scary thinking about him playing with a busted fibula... i hope he doesn't end up making things worse 
as for the rumors of him going back to minnesota, that would be crazy... i think dan jones deserves another shot at being the main man in a franchise, but we'll see how it all plays out 
Daniel Jones' decision to play through an injury despite being listed as hurt shows he's willing to put in the work, but how long can his body keep up? 
he's all "i wanna play thru my broken bone" but i mean if you cant even walk properly how r u gonna perform on field lolol. and btw 8-3 record in AFC south thats cute, but we all no that teams 1st half performance dont count 2 much. and btw there r rumors of him joinin the vikings?? idk wut i think he shd just chill & enjoy his contract lol
i mean, if u got a fractured fibula, u gotta rest it or risk makin long-term damage 
doesn't matter how good the team's doin, if u can't play healthy, wut's the point? 
plus, if the colts r doin so great, why not just hold on to him for the playoffs? 
and on a bigger note i think its cool that he wanna stay in Indy since they've been doing so well, but idk about the Vikings rumors 
maybe hes trying to get out of this team before it's too late?
. I mean, 8-3 record or whatever, you can't even take a break from breaking your own bone 
.
. I don't know what to think about this whole situation... is Jones just trying to be some kind of hero or something? It's always weird when athletes are so focused on their careers that they forget how to take care of themselves 
. It's like, if he can play through this injury, what else can't he handle? 
The Colts are killing it this season and it's only natural that Daniel would want to see it through and potentially get a sweet contract extension out of it 
.
. The Vikings are trying to rebuild and could use a quarterback like Jones to lead them in the future 
. Maybe this reunion thing isn't as far-fetched as people think? 
- he's gotta prove himself & show that all those injuries weren't gonna hold him back 
But at the same time, a reunion with the Vikings would be crazy... can't imagine what their QB situation is like right now 
! 
I mean, he wants to play through a fractured fibula? That sounds like a recipe for disaster 
. This is gonna be a wild ride if he does decide to play through it! 
. and what about his long-term health? we don't even know how this fracture is gonna affect him in the future 
he wasnt exactly lighting up the giants last season lol. but u gotta respect his will 2 push thru & play thru pain 
he played thru injuries all last season with the giants and it didnt exactly work out so well... maybe hes getting cold feet about signing with the colts or just trying to keep his options open? 
he's been through so much already this season with that injury and now he's just gonna play thru it?
