I ponder just how much the leg injury impacted his performance on Sunday. On his one meaningful carry, he kind of trotted over towards the sideline and went out of bounds after he picked up the first down.
A healthy Jones has always been a weapon with his legs, and I wonder what could have been had they been able to roll the pocket to the right and give Jones the option of running. With 8 guys stacked in the box, KC’s defense might have been vulnerable, especially if one of their cover guys had abandoned his man in order to cut Jones off at the pass.
