The New England Patriots will start off a new era on Sunday, as Mac Jones taking over under center means they’ve officially identified Tom Brady’s successor.
As we know, Cam Newton, who was surprisingly released leading up to the 53-man deadline, was merely a stopgap option to bide Bill Belichick and Co. enough time to find their long-term answer at quarterback.
Though it’s extremely early into Jones’ career, Patriots fans would be hard-pressed to deny that he looks like the answer.
