Tests Confirm Mac Jones Suffered High-Ankle Sprain
2 years agoTests have confirmed that New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones (ankle) suffered a "pretty severe" high-ankle sprain in the Week 3 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, according to sources. The hope is that Jones won't need surgery. His timetable is still to be determined, but it's hard to imagine he'll play in Week 4 against the Green Bay Packers. Fantasy managers running with the 24-year-old second-year signal-caller in two-QB leagues will need to find another option for at least the next couple of weeks and possibly longer. Jones threw for 321 yards, no touchdowns and three interceptions on 32 attempts on Sunday in the loss to Baltimore. Thirty-six-year-old veteran Brian Hoyer is now in line to start against the Packers this Sunday, making Green Bay's defense/special teams unit extremely attractive as a fantasy streamer.
