New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones found himself in an avalanche of rumors and speculation last week when it was reported that Bill Belichick tried shopping the signal-caller this offseason.
While there were further reports pouring a whole glass of cold water on that notion, there’s obvious friction between Jones and Belichick.
Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer gave further context Monday into the reported icy relationship between the two. A lot of it seems to stem from the way Jones handled the unconventional move last season by Belichick, who put Matt Patricia and Joe Judge in charge of the offense, which turned into an abject failure.
