If things keep going the way they’re going, the Patriots could find themselves with a top-5 pick in next year’s NFL Draft.
New England’s 2-6 record is the worst in the entire AFC.
The Bears and the Giants are also 2-6. The Panthers are 1-6, and the Cardinals are 1-7. Every other team in the NFL has a better record than the Patriots.
Despite taking Mac Jones in the first round of the 2021 Draft, there are questions about whether it’s time for the Patriots to find another option at quarterback.
Jones is still on his rookie deal, so he’s still an affordable option for next season.
