Update: Chandler Jones avoids ankle surgery
Chandler Jones - DL - New England Patriots
Jan. 29, 2013 - 1:50 PM ET

Updating a previous item, Patriots RE Chandler Jones does not need offseason ankle surgery.

Jones battled both left and right ankle injuries for the second half of the season and into the playoffs. After storming out of the gates to pick up six sacks and three forced fumbles in the first eight games of the season, Jones' production fell off and he was shut out in those categories for the rest of the way. He may rest through OTAs, but Jones will be good to go for training camp.
