Heels' Jones out 2-3 weeks

Dwight Jones, a highly recruited sophomore who's a key player in North Carolina's inexperienced wide receiving corps, is expected back from a knee injury before the end of the month.

North Carolina announced Friday that Jones is expected to be out for 2-3 weeks. He had successful arthroscopic surgery on his right knee Friday at UNC Hospitals.

Jones, who played in three games last season, was listed as a starter before the injury.
