He told reporters he will be ready when his time comes.
Mac Jones’ time for the New England Patriots may come in week one. His performances have been steady throughout NFL Preseason, but his best moment came in Sunday’s game versus the New York Giants. Jones replaced Cam Newton in the third quarter, and the Patriots trailed 6-7. The 15th overall pick took the team on a 75-yard touchdown drive in six plays. He connected with wide receiver Isaiah Zuber for a 17-yard score. Jones’ first touchdown of preseason gave New England a 12-7 advantage.
He would then guide the Patriots on a 50-yard scoring drive in four plays.
