Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones suffered a bone bruise during Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears and is considered day to day, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Jones avoided serious injury to his ACL and MCL, according to Schefter.

The 28-year-old has recorded 35 receptions for 508 yards and five touchdowns in nine games.

If Jones is unable to play Sunday against the Carolina Panthers, TJ Jones and Brandon Powell will compete for increased playing time.
