Duke Football: Should Daniel Jones return this week if doctors clear him?

Simply put, the answer is no. Daniel Jones, who was the starting quarterback for the Duke football team in the previous two seasons and in the first two games of this season, broke his collarbone on Sept. 8 during the Blue Devils’ 21-7 win at Northwestern.

And after that injury left fans feeling worried about the future outcome of that game–as well as the outcomes of future games–Quentin Harris took his place and began the process of relieving fans’ anxiety levels.

Not only did Harris play with enough poise and confidence to help finalize Duke’s victory that day, but he has also done enough from under center during the Blue Devils’ two wins since to support the reasoning that there is no reason at all to rush the return of Jones.
