How Patriots’ Mac Jones Is Preparing For First Cold-Weather Game

FOXBORO, Mass. — Sunday’s forecast calls for a high temperature of 41 degrees and a low of 22 at Gillette Stadium. Those are familiar conditions for many New England Patriots players but foreign ones for the team’s rookie quarterback, Mac Jones.

Having grown up in Jacksonville, Fla., and played his college ball at Alabama, Jones has yet to experience the challenge of playing outdoors in New England in late November, December and January.

Ahead of Sunday’s home matchup with the Tennessee Titans, the young signal-caller explained how he’s preparing.

“I think just take each day by day and try not to focus on it too much,” Jones said.
