Patriots’ Chandler Jones doesn’t need surgery

Patriots defensive end Chandler Jones, who had an injury to each of his ankles late in the season, will not require surgery on either, a team source confirmed Tuesday.

When Jones spoke with the media Jan. 21, the day after the season-ending loss to the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Championship game, he said he was going to meet with the team’s medical personnel later that day to see if surgery would be needed.
