As previously discussed, there was a chance Duke quarterback Daniel Jones could get a chance to return to the football field tonight when the Blue Devils host Virginia Tech. On Saturday morning, Duke made it official; Jones will start for Duke just three weeks after breaking his left clavicle.

Jones missed Duke’s last two games after going down with the injury in a game at Northwestern in Week 2. Duke says Jones underwent surgery the day after the Northwestern game.
The injury was to Johnson’s non-throwing arm, but to be able to come back from such an injury so quickly is still amazing to those of us who sit and watch the games at home and in front of a computer.
