Here is more information:

Multiple reports have surfaced Saturday afternoon that Washington CB Sidney Jones suffered what appears to be a serious lower left leg injury during the school’s Pro Day.

Jones reportedly went down while backpedaling during a drill and had to be helped off the field by HC Chris Petersen, per Sheil Kapadia. Upon being taken off of the field, Jones had his left leg elevated on while on the cart.

Daniel Jeremiah has receives a number of texts from scouts in attendance who mentioned that Jones may have suffered a significant lower leg injury.

It’s hard to say exactly what the injury is right now and we won’t speculate at what it could be based on accounts being shared online.

Jones is considered to be one of the top cornerback prospects in this year’s draft class and you would hate to see anyone suffer a serious injury, especially this close to the draft.

During his college career at Washington, Jones recorded 145 tackles, one sack, eight interceptions, one defensive touchdown, 21 pass defenses, six forced fumbles, three recoveries and 21 pass defenses.

Definitely sounds like an Achilles. That means out all of 2017.

Negative. Butt will fall way farther than 2.. we can't come away from this draft with one quality player for this season after all the players we have lost.

 

[Alexander]

Seeing nothing but confirmation for a torn Achilles.

Sad for the player. Fearful we might actually take another redshirt.

Don't get me wrong, absolutely love the player and I don't care for corners.

Just tired of the practice.

Negative.

 

[waldoputty]

Negative.

not in terms of time missed but in terms of amount of recovery?

@WoodysGirl , @MichaelWinicki or one of the other mods online.

Please merge this thread with the other Jones injured thread.

This one is way cooler since it was first and the other thread spelled his name with a "y".

Sucks for the kid, if it is the achilles that is truly horrible.

Next guy who gets on a kid who skips these postseason drills needs a whooping! Thats a ton of $ blown, and a crushing heartache for him. He really had nothing left to prove.
