Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones has suffered a fractured fibula, sparking concerns about his availability for the Sunday NFL game against the Houston Texans. Fans took to social media to express their doubts, with some questioning how he could play through the injury. However, Jones has given a positive update on his condition, assuring fans that he'll be ready to go on Sunday. When asked about the origin of the injury, Jones couldn't pinpoint an exact moment, stating that it was 'something that kind of was hanging over and realized it last week.' The recovery time for a fractured fibula can range from four to six months, depending on the severity and treatment. However, with proper treatment and care, players have been known to play through similar injuries. In 2018, Aaron Rodgers played the entire season with a tibial plateau fracture. If Jones were to miss the game, Riley Leonard could potentially step in. However, the Colts have already been dealing with quarterback issues, with Anthony Richardson out due to a broken orbital bone sustained in a freak pregame accident. The Colts will be hoping Jones can shake off the injury and lead his team to victory on Sunday.
