The Patriots will be without one of the top pieces of their secondary against the Eagles in Foxborough on Sunday.
Second-year cornerback Jack Jones is listed as “out” on the team’s Friday injury report. New England says Jones is dealing with a hamstring injury.
Earlier this week, head coach Bill Belichick said he expected the 25-year-old to be available Week 1. Belichick told reporters Friday morning that Jones is undergoing testing for his injury and hinted that his status would change.
The Athletic’s Jeff Howe reported this morning that Jones would be “expected to miss some time” with the injury.
