In a stunning turn of events that has sent waves of excitement through Lucas Oil Stadium and across the NCAA community, a major announcement was delivered today from the Board of the Indianapolis Colts University Football Program.
Chancellor Carlie Irsay-Gordon, Owner & Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Principal Owner of the Colts, released an official message addressed to Head Coach Shane Steichen, fans, and the entire NCAA community — celebrating a bold new direction for the team.
In a press conference held earlier this afternoon, Coach Shane Steichen confirmed that Quarterback Daniel Jones will officially become the new starting quarterback for the Colts’ university football team, beginning immediately.
“This is a game-changing moment for our program,” said Steichen. “Daniel brings the experience, leadership, and drive that we believe will take this team to the next level. The future starts now.”
Jones, a former NFL quarterback known for his time with the New York Giants, has decided to return to the collegiate level in a unique partnership aimed at player development, mentorship, and reinvigorating university-level football at the highest competitive standard.
Chancellor Irsay-Gordon emphasized the broader impact of this move:
“We are redefining what’s possible in university athletics. Daniel’s arrival isn’t just about football — it’s about leadership, excellence, and giving our student-athletes the chance to learn from the very best.”
Fans packed the stadium and flooded social media with reactions ranging from shock to overwhelming joy. Some called it “a new era” for the Colts’ university program, while others hailed it as a “bold stroke of genius.”
The NCAA has yet to release a formal statement, but insiders say this move could inspire other programs to rethink the boundaries between professional and collegiate football development.
As the Colts prepare for their upcoming season, all eyes will be on Daniel Jones and Coach Steichen to see how this unprecedented move plays out on the field.
