Clavicle sidelines Duke QB Daniel Jones; CB Mark Gilbert out for season

One day after Duke picked up a signature win on the road against Northwestern, the Blue Devils lost two of their top performers to injuries.

Quarterback Daniel Jones fractured his clavicle against Northwestern and had surgery on Sunday. He'll be out indefinitely, coach David Cutcliffe said, but the injury is not considered season ending.

Cornerback Mark Gilbert, on the other hand, is done for the year with what Cutcliffe described as a freak hip injury.

"It's a very difficult circumstance," Cutcliffe said. "Very awkward, odd injury. It's very unlucky but things like that happen.
