Will DaQuan Jones return this week?

This question should be answered sooner rather than later and potentially as early as today when Sean McDermott meets with the media before practice. The Bills thought DaQuan Jones could be lost for the year after suffering a torn pec in Week 5 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

However, the former starting defensive tackle had his practice window opened last week and this could be an indicator that he is close to returning. The team doesn't necessarily have to activate him from injured reserve this week but if he does return, it would be a nice boost for the defense.

DaQuan Jones was one of the unsung heroes of this defense as he does the little things that made the players around him better. He was playing great football and pairing him with Linval Joseph, who has been a pleasant surprise, would make the defensive line much tougher to run on.
