In his new conference on Monday, the coach elaborated on what the quarterback has been doing well to have the immediate impact he's had.“I think the consistency that he brings, his preparation, and it’s coming to life on the field on Sundays. He works at it,” Steichen said. “I think he’s doing a really nice job of going through his reads. If the first read is not there, he’s getting to his second, third reads.Steichen also believes Jones can continue to build on his confidence in the backfield as the season progresses.“I think when you start playing at a high level, obviously your confidence grows and builds, not with just Daniel, with any player,” Steichen said. “And obviously, we want to continue that trend each and every week, and he’s been doing a hell of a job. So, we’ve got to continue that this week. The preparation is going to be a big part of it.”With Daniel Jones leading the offense, the Indianapolis Colts have not punted in their first two games of the 2025 season. Only two of their possessions, excluding one end-of-half situation, have failed to result in points. Both scoreless drives ended in turnovers on downs.
