Week 12 just got a little bit easier on the New England Patriots we would imagine.
They’re set to face the AFC South’s top-ranked Titans the weekend of Thanksgiving on Nov. 28. But it looks like they won’t have to prepare for Julio Jones.
Tennessee on Saturday placed the star receiver on the injured reserve with a hamstring injury that has been an issue since Week 3 but was re-tweaked on Thursday, causing him to miss practice Friday.
Jones will now miss at least three games — where the Titans play the New Orleans Saints, Houston Texans and Patriots without him.
