The New England Patriots are never not going to be looking at other options, no matter the position or player.
That was something Patriots director of player personnel Matt Groh made sure to hammer home when speaking with media members earlier in the week. In many ways, the comments were foreboding for a top 30 pre-draft visit with University of Kentucky quarterback Will Levis on Wednesday.
The news that the Patriots were meeting with a projected first-round pick at the quarterback position started a social media firestorm of speculation that the team might be considering moving on from Mac Jones.
