Kentucky football LB Jacquez Jones leaves game vs. Ole Miss with foot injury

Kentucky football linebacker Jacquez Jones exited Saturday's game in Oxford, Mississippi, after suffering a reported left foot injury, according to ESPN sideline reporter Molly McGrath.

Jones, a graduate transfer from Ole Miss, was slow to get up after tackling running back Zach Evans for a 4-yard gain with less than nine minutes to play in the first quarter. He returned to the game, however, and hauled in a key interception that ended the Rebels' attempt to extend their lead over the Wildcats entering halftime.

Jones took the field for the second half, but the injury appeared to be bothering him after multiple plays.
