Jones suffered the injury during Sunday’s clash against North Melbourne at the MCG.
He copped in a knee in the back from North Melbourne forward Aaron Edwards, during a contest.
The hard-at-it Demon was immediately taken from the ground, playing no further part in the match.
Jones spent two nights in hospital, before being released.
Although it was a nasty incident, the tenacious midfielder remains in good spirits.
The 22-year-old has played 92 matches, playing all 22 games in 2010.
He has missed just four matches in four seasons
