FOXBOROUGH — Mac Jones heaved deep ball after deep ball to Patriots staffers long after the club wrapped up Monday’s OTA practice on the back fields at Gillette Stadium.
According to teammates, however, the second-year quarterback has been showing off more than his arm strength lately.
“Mac? He’s in the best shape of his life,” said receiver Kendrick Bourne. “I think he’s been here all offseason with [strength and conditioning coach] Moses [Cabrera]. He’s definitely a pro’s pro now.
“When you’re a rookie, you just don’t know until you go through it for a year. He’s definitely a lot more in shape than he ever was.
