JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones went down with a noncontact lower leg injury to his right Achilles, leaving him in obvious pain and out for the remainder of Sunday’s pivotal AFC South game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Jones dropped back to throw late in the first quarter and seemed to lose his footing as he delivered the throw. He fell to the wet turf and immediately grabbed his right lower leg area. That is the opposite leg from the left fibula fracture he’s been dealing with throughout the past several weeks.
Jones proceeded to slam his helmet to the turf multiple times before he was helped to his feet and walked gingerly to the injury tent. A few minutes later, he walked slowly to the locker room and was ruled out of the game moments later.
