It wasn’t long ago that Patriots owner Robert Kraft was weighing in on New England’s quarterback room headlined by Cam Newton and Jarrett Stidham.
Kraft, you may recall, defended Newton’s 2020 production as he cited the lack of offensive weapons and an early-season COVID-19 diagnosis. Kraft also expressed his doubts on if Stidham ever received a fair shot at the starting job.
Well, fast forward about six weeks and Kraft’s Patriots now have a new quarterback. And it’s someone head coach Bill Belichick certainly hopes can turn out to be a franchise cornerstone: Mac Jones.
