Ex-NFL player rips Patriots QB Mac Jones' hit on Eli Apple as 'dirty' play

Is New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones a dirty player?

There a few examples of Jones going over the line during his two seasons as an NFL player.

He had an incident with Carolina Panthers defensive end Brian Burns last year as a rookie. Jones grabbed Burns' ankle and appeared to twist it after a strip sack.

Back in Week 7 of this season, Jones had a few questionable slides, including one where his cleat caught Bears safety Jaquan Brisker in a sensitive region.
