In the New England Patriots loss to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, New England quarterback suffered a back injury on a high/low hit. But according to NFL reporter Mike Giardi, Jones feels better and wants to be ready to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers this week.

Jones’ injury status will be something to keep an eye on, especially with the status of Steelers outside linebacker T.J. Watt up in the air. The Steelers defense hit Cincinnati quarterback Joe Burrow early and often last week so Jones with a bad back could be a problem for the Patriots.

The Steelers are looking to go 2-0 after their upset win over the Bengals.
