It's a brutal blow to the Colts, who were already on a losing streak and trying to keep their playoff hopes alive. Riley Leonard is the only healthy QB on the roster at the moment, with Anthony Richardson on IR recovering from his own injury. If nothing else, Leonard at least had a decent showing all things considered.

Fantasy Impact
Steichen added that they could not confirm anything at this time. Based on how the injury occurred and the Colts quickly ruling him out, Jones will likely be ruled out for the remainder of the season. Prior to the injury, he completed 5-of-7 passes for 60 yards and an interception. Riley Leonard will likely take over as quarterback for the remainder of the season, as he is the only quarterback on the roster heading into Week 15.

It’s a massive blow to the offense. Jones was toughing out a fibula injury, and now his other leg has given out on him on a non-contact injury. Its just speculation at this point, but it appeared to be the dreaded Achilles tear based on video evidence. But that will need to be confirmed. If it is a tear, he will be out for the remainder of the season.
