On Monday, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones was officially diagnosed with a “severe” high ankle sprain. Per Schefter, this could require surgery to accelerate Jones’ timeline to return but Jones and the Patriots have yet to decide on a rehabilitation option as of yet. He also noted, “[Jones] is likely to miss multiple games.”
This is not a surprise, as Greg A. Bedard of the Boston Sports Journal reported yesterday that Jones, who threw every pass that the Patriots attempted on Sunday, was aided down steps by his teammates when entering New England’s locker room after the game.
