The Indianapolis Colts have a major injury concern on their hands for the rest of the season with quarterback Daniel Jones.

It was recently revealed that Jones has a fractured fibula, although it's not a significant one, as Jones is able to suit up and play through it.

However, the fear is not only could the injury hamper Jones and impact his play, but that it could get worse and force him to miss time as the Colts make their playoff push.

Here's what we know about Jones' injury and how it could impact his game.

Jones began feeling soreness in his lower left leg a few weeks back, and after going for tests, it was revealed he's dealing with a minor fracture in his fibula.

It's an injury Jones will likely be dealing with the rest of the season.

In order to help protect it, Jones is now wearing a pad on his leg, which just so happened to be developed by his former Duke teammates.

"Lucky to have smart friends who are really close friends," Jones said. "It's pretty low profile and fits to my leg pretty well. I didn't really notice it Sunday."

According to The Athletic's Dianna Russini, "severe pain" isn't the issue for Jones, but rather his ability to push off on the leg because of lessened stability.

Unfortunately, Jones' mobility has taken a hit as a result of the injury, and it could also hamper his throwing, although Jones pushes off his right leg more to throw.

Not being able to run as well makes Jones more susceptible to taking big hits and making the injury worse, as he can't escape pressure as effectively as he normally does.

Colts fans will no doubt be holding their breath each and every time Jones takes a hit.
