Jones, 21, suffered a fractured leg and had arteries and nerves exposed, WWL-TV reports.
Per WWL, this is how the story started:
WWL.com columnist Jeff Palermo talked with Jones' father, who was headed to the hospital. Alfred Jones confirmed his son was hurt, but said he was alert when paramedics took him to the emergency room.
New Orleans EMS reported transporting a patient from the scene of the crash in guarded condition.

A Ton of Hope and Faith for C. Jones
I have a lot of faith in Chad and in my heart feels that although the recovery is in no way going to be easy, he will pull thru. He’s an amazing athlete not to mention an awsome father and just an all around good guy. Hes still an LSU Tiger deep down inside and I believe he’s gonna do what it takes to fully recover.
