Plenty Of Instability In Mac Jones' Ankle
2 years agoThere remains plenty of instability in New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones' ankle, according to sources. Jones still has a limp and isn't getting up on his toes very much, although he's moving considerably better than he was at practice last Friday, when he didn't really move much at all. The second-year signal-caller suffered a severe high-ankle sprain in Week 3 and was inactive in last week's loss to the Green Bay Packers. The Patriots probably won't rule the 24-year-old out until at least much later in the week, but it seems unlikely that he'll be able to go in Week 5 against the Detroit Lions. With veteran Brian Hoyer (head) dealing with a head injury, rookie third-stringer Bailey Zappe, who was efficient in relief last week, could make his first career start this Sunday.
