FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — New England Patriots cornerback Marcus Jones, who was named a first-team All-Pro as a punt returner last season, was placed on injured reserve Friday.
Jones injured a shoulder in Sunday night's 24-17 loss to the Miami Dolphins while attempting to tackle receiver Jaylen Waddle in the second quarter.
Jones tore a labrum, according to a source, with his timetable to return to be determined, according to coach Bill Belichick.
Players on injured reserve can return after four games, but Belichick made it sound like the Patriots expect it to be a longer absence.
