From the episode
he was not 100%. He was playing, but he wasn't 100%...we do historically see when guys have tears, particularly Achilles tears, the first year back, even if they're technically able to play...the first year is going to be slow
STACKED’s take
Negative signalInjury
Jones' Achilles recovery is concerning; first-year returns typically show limitations.
Matt Harmon expresses concern about Daniel Jones' Achilles tear recovery despite his miraculous return for Week 1. When Harmon was at training camp early, Jones was not 100% healthy. Historically, players returning from Achilles tears in their first year are not fully recovered, with second-year returns typically showing full capability. Harmon worries Jones may have suffered the Achilles tear due to compensating for a prior leg fracture, and if the Colts push him at 80%, it could impact his performance and mobility.
