TEXANS NOTES: First start for Jones is last for awhile | Chron.com - Houston Chronicle

Quote:

Texans wide receiver Jacoby Jones started the first game of his NFL career in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Colts. Now he will have to watch the next two or three from the sidelines.

Jones separated his shoulder after his 74-yard punt return in the third quarter. Colts punter Hunter Smith ran Jones out of bounds and fell on top of him on the sidelines, driving Jones' shoulder into the grass.

"I thought I fell on it bad and banged it or bruised it," Jones said. "But when I tried to move it, I could hear it. It didn't sound right. I knew something was wrong."

Jones had two punt returns for 86 yards. He also had three catches for 26 yards and one 3-yard carry that gave the Texans a critical first down.

Jones had an MRI on Sunday evening but said prior to it that he would likely be out two or three weeks.
