I'll tell you why, Jones went and saw another doctor in North Carolina about his foot.
But here's the kicker, he practiced with the team twice. Once during the BYE week and once before the New England game.
Just blows me away he had to go to another doctor to know he wouldn't be able to play on that foot rather than the medical staff here.
You left out a few details. Jones first injured his ankle in February at Dalton's passing camp. He was placed on nonfootball injury list before training camp and then the PUP list. He was cleared to practice for training camp and injured his ankle for a second time. Cleared to practice two weeks later and broke his foot which required surgery. He practiced once after Week 4 coming back from foot surgery. Practiced the next week and re-injured the ankle for a 3rd time. Then he was sent to see a specialist.
So which ankle injury do you think required surgery? The first, second, or third ankle injury?
