The body ink. The dreadlocks. The German accent.\u00a0The whole package was back at Gillette Stadium\u00a0on Thursday. And not a moment too soon.<\/p>\n

Six\u00a0weeks after undergoing sports hernia surgery, midfielder Jermaine Jones rejoined the Revolution for training on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Jones spent the bulk of his recovery in Los\u00a0Angeles under the supervision of staff from U.S. Soccer.\u00a0He underwent surgery two days after going the full 90 in the United States’ 2-0 win over Panama on Feb. 8.<\/p>\n

His return to the squad is a welcome development for the Revolution, who’ve started the 2015 season winless – and goalless – in their first three.\u00a0Last year, the\u00a0club went 9-1-2 with Jones in the lineup, the lone loss coming in the Revolution’s 2-1 defeat to the LA Galaxy in the MLS Cup final.<\/p>\n

During his absence, veterans\u00a0Andy Dorman and Daigo Kobayashi have both filled in for Jones in the central midfield.<\/p>\n

Jones will be meeting with the local media for the first time this year\u00a0prior to Friday’s training.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
