FOXBOROUGH, Mass – All eyes are on J.C. Jackson and Jack Jones after the two reportedly missed curfew on Saturday, leading to them getting benched during Sunday's game. 

And because of that, Jackson will now not be traveling with the team to Germany for their matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Jones' status for the game is unknown at this time. 

Yet, it might have become more clear after seeing who was in attendance during the media attended portion of practice. 

Jackson was missing from the field, but Jones was out there and participating with his team. The only other player missing was offensive tackle Trent Brown. 

This seems to imply that Jones will be traveling with the team this week. 

On Sunday, Jackson was sidelined for the first two drives of Sunday's matchup against the Washington Commanders. And he was joined by Jack Jones who did not see time during the entire first quarter. Instead, it was Shaun Wade who got the start.

While Bill Belichick initially said after the game that the benching was not disciplinary, the latest reports say something entirely different. 

There is still a lot that is unknown about the situation, and Belichick's decisions regarding the cornerback room will be very telling.
