Fans of the New England Patriots are in unfamiliar territory as their team is trying to move forward from the Bill Belichick era. One of the issues they have to address is the quarterback position as Mac Jones is not the guy who’ll take them forward.
Both parties want nothing to do with each other and will make moves in the offseason. The most recent revelation about this fractured relationship is only the final nail in the coffin of the former Alabama standout’s time in New England.
Mac Jones expressed frustration at the New England Patriots, jealousy of Zach Wilson
According to an Overtime Heroics piece covering the drama, the former first-round pick talked with a member of the Jets to talk about the lack of clear communication between him and the Patriots. He then compared his situation to Zach Wilson, another former first-round pick who is in a similar boat as Jones’.
Lifting off the New York Post’s Jenna Lemoncelli, the piece wrote about the specifics:
“Jones, whose future with the Patriots is uncertain after a disastrous losing season, found himself so frustrated with the Patriots’ lack of communication that he told a Jets staffer he appreciated how they handled Wilson’s situation,” the report states, citing a source during pregame in Foxborough.
Jones wasn’t able to live up to the expectations he set for himself in his rookie year. In the 11 games he played for the Patriots, he completed 224 passes for 2120 yards, 10 TDs, and 12 INTs. He also had a subpar success rate of 43.3%, and his 77.0 QB rating is the lowest in his three-year tenure.
With the New England Patriots becoming increasingly unlikely to extend Jones’ stay at Foxborough, the team may opt to look for their next quarterback in the coming offseason. Meanwhile, Jones’ NFL future is uncertain after the 2023 campaign crashed his stock among teams looking for a new signal caller.
