REPORT: Mac Jones & New England Patriots In Serious ‘Disagreement’ Over Handling Of His Injury

The New England Patriots and quarterback Mac Jones reportedly aren’t seeing eye-to-eye on how they should handle his high ankle sprain.

Jones suffered the injury late in the Patriots’ Week 3 home loss to the Baltimore Ravens. On Monday, NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported that Jones’ ankle sprain is “pretty severe”, and that he’s unlikely to play in Week 4 against the Green Bay Packers.

Tests confirmed #Patriots QB Mac Jones suffered a "pretty severe" high ankle sprain in Sunday's loss to the #Ravens, sources tell me and @RapSheet.

The hope is Jones won't need surgery. Timetable still TBD but hard to imagine he plays this week vs. the #Packers.

In an update, James Stewart of 98.5 The Sports Hub reported on Monday evening that Jones and the Pats “are at a disagreement” over how to proceed.

According to Stewart, the team prefers that Jones returns “as soon as possible”, whereas Jones would rather “proceed with caution” and get a second opinion.

The Patriots and Mac Jones are at a disagreement about how to move forward.
Patriots want to get him back as soon as possible and he’s hesitant to their guidance and wants to proceed with caution. 2nd opinion.
Pats timeline is 4 weeks max, he’s comfortable waiting 6-8 if needed. https://t.co/XFeIm07q1t

Jones suffered the injury after taking a hit from Ravens defensive tackle Calais Campbell. Baltimore won 37-26 to move to 2-1 on the year, while the Patriots’ defeat dropped them to 1-2 through three weeks for the second consecutive year.

With Jones likely to miss time, the Patriots will most likely go with veteran backup Brian Hoyer for the Week 4 showdown against Green Bay. The only other quarterback on the depth chart is rookie Bailey Zappe, whom New England drafted in the fourth round at 137 overall.

After visiting the 2-1 Packers, the Patriots will return home for a showdown against the Detroit Lions in Week 5. New England will hit the road again for a meeting with the Cleveland Browns, before returning to Gillette Stadium in Week 7 for a home tilt against the Chicago Bears.

For now, the Patriots and their fans can only hold their breath and hope that the 2021 first-round pick returns sooner rather than later.
