Jones (throat) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Titans, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports. Jones suffered a throat injury in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game. Given that the game has entered the final two minutes of the fourth quarter, he may have been held out for the rest of the contest out of precaution. His practice participation over the week will determine his availability for Week 17 against the Giants on Sunday, Dec. 29.
Jones (throat) is questionable to return to Sunday's outing against the Titans, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports. Jones suffered a throat injury in the second half versus Tennessee and now could miss the rest of the game. He had four tackles at the time of his departure.
Jones started and recorded five total tackles and two interceptions in Sunday's 21-16 win over Chicago. Jones struggled in coverage Week 1 but has shown improvement in both of the ensuing two games. He played on all 90 of the Colts' defensive snaps Week 3, so he looks entrenched as a starter at right cornerback after winning the role in training camp.
Jones has been logging work with the starters during OTAs, James Boyd of The Athletic reports. Jones worked primarily as a starter last season, though that was largely due to Dallis Flowers suffering an Achilles injury in Week 4. Flowers has returned to the field, but Jones has nonetheless been getting work with the Colts' defensive starters during OTAs. It's possible that Jones will be able to retain his starting role following a strong rookie campaign during which he tallied 44 tackles (33 solo) and five defensed passes over 17 regular-season contests.
