The question to me is, if JT has a great/very good 2023, will the Colts give him an extension? If that is their intention why not sit down with him and make that clear (if they haven't already). Maybe even include some benchmarks and say if you reach these goals we will will offer you a very fair extension and negotiate in good faith!
At some point, unless the Colts don't really have long term plans for JT, they are going to have to make it clear to him that they value him greatly as a player and provided he can stay healthy and reach some agreed upon goals he will receive at least an offer of a very fair and market based extension! That is how most of us get raises or promotions in our work. If he has a great or very good 2023, I just think franchising him is unfair, they should at least make him a fair offer based on his market value....he can choose to reject it, but I believe an offer should be made!
