Mac Jones delivered one of the best throws of his young NFL career when the Patriots needed it most Sunday afternoon.
Unfortunately for New England’s starting quarterback, his target let the golden opportunity go by the wayside.
With the Patriots trailing the Raiders by two late in the fourth quarter at Allegiant Stadium, Jones uncorked a beautifully thrown ball down the left sideline that reached Parker in stride near midfield. The veteran wide receiver got both of his hands on the football but couldn’t corral it and New England suffered a game-sealing safety two plays later.
