New England Patriots lose All-Pro to shoulder injury

Injured in the New England Patriots’ 24-17 loss to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday night, cornerback Marcus Jones was placed on injured reserve on Friday.

By NFL rules, Jones must miss at least New England’s next four games. On Friday, Patriots coach Bill Belichick said Jones “will be out for a while” after he sustained a torn labrum.
