The media got its first look at the 2021 Patriots as they hit the practice field on Thursday for some OTA work at Gillette Stadium. All eyes were on rookie Mac Jones as he worked with the three other quarterbacks – Cam Newton, Jarrett Stidham and Brian Hoyer – and how things were divided among that group.
Jones got his share of reps, showing a quick release at times and generally displaying solid accuracy. Obviously he has a lot to learn as the gets his professional career underway.
"He dove into the playbook and continues to do that," Belichick said of Jones.
