One of the biggest storylines heading into the New England Patriots’ training camp this summer is the development of second-year quarterback Mac Jones. A first-round draft pick by the Patriots in 2021, Jones showed considerable promise during his rookie campaign — earning the starting job and leading the team back to the playoffs.
Entering his second training camp as a pro, Jones is therefore in line to make the leap associated with sophomore players. Him doing so would go a long way towards New England’s offense following suit this season.
Time will tell whether he will succeed, but the Patriots apparently feel confident in his outlook — at least if the team’s head coach is to be believed.
