Mac Jones relishes downtime after ‘longest year’ of his football career

Patriots quarterback Mac Jones is reflecting on his rookie season in the NFL.

He started all 17 games of his rookie season and outperformed expectations for much of the year before hitting a wall at the end. He helped to lead New England back to the playoffs after the team missed the postseason the year before. To top it off, Jones played in the Pro Bowl.

But as successful as the last two seasons have been for him dating back to college, the soon-to-be second-year NFL starter is enjoying some time away from it all for the first time in a while.
