The New England Patriots could be without cornerback Jack Jones for the season opener on Sunday against the visiting Philadelphia Eagles.
According to a Thursday report by The Athletic, the second-year defensive back will miss "some time" because of a hamstring injury he sustained at practice one day earlier.
Jones was the only New England player who missed practice on Thursday.
Patriots coach Bill Belichick had downplayed the severity of the injury after practice Wednesday, telling reporters that Jones "should be available" against the Eagles.
