Patriots defensive end Chandler Jones has spent the majority of the offseason rehabilitating at Gillette Stadium, as I’m told he’s among a group of players recovering from post-Super Bowl surgery. Jones, who missed six games in 2014 with a hip injury, has recently been walking with the aid of crutches. I don’t get the sense from those close to Jones that there is any significant long-range concern about his health and availability, but when a player’s offseason puts him on more of the rehabilitation track than the standard offseason workouts, it’s deemed worthy of note.
