After the game, Jones said that his injury “was not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be. I’m good.”
Why did he insist on returning? “Just my competitive nature, wanting to be out there with my guys,” he said. “A lot of blood, sweat and tears goes into it, and you only get 17 games. So when it’s taken away from you, even one game is taken away from you, you really feel it. So I’m like, ‘I don’t want to miss any time. I want to go back out there.’ Shout-out to my trainers for always taking care of me.”
I’m guessing it was their pleasure.
