FRANKFURT, Germany -- New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones was pulled from Sunday's 10-6 loss to the Indianapolis Colts at Frankfurt Stadium after throwing a fourth-quarter interception, with coach Bill Belichick turning to backup Bailey Zappe with 1:52 remaining.

Jones' benching sparks questions on whether he will keep the starting job for the second half of the season. He had already been pulled from two games earlier in the season -- against the Dallas Cowboys and New Orleans Saints -- but the outcome was well in hand in those games.
