It sounds like Devin McCourty got wind of last week’s bizarre controversy involving Patriots quarterback Mac Jones.
In case you missed it, team broadcaster Scott Zolak made headlines after openly wondering whether Jones has been “in the building” this offseason. Zolak said Jones should be at Gillette Stadium studying the playbook with new offensive coordinator Bill O’Brien, and presented his remarks in a manner that suggested he had inside knowledge of Jones’ offseason habits.
There was just one problem: NFL rules prevent Jones and other players from working directly with coaches, including going over plays, this early in the offseason.
