Amid an offseason of unceasing uncertainty, Mac Jones reportedly still has the support of his Patriots teammates.
New England’s third-year quarterback “has a ton of support in the locker room,” longtime NFL reporter Mike Giardi reported Thursday, adding Jones’ “teammates have appreciated his steadfast desire to make this offense better and himself better this offseason.”
Jones is “taking accountability” after an underwhelming and frustrating sophomore season, per Giardi’s report.
Giardi did add that “outside (the locker room) is a different story.” It’s unclear whether he was referring to coaches and other folks inside the Patriots organization, or New England fans who are hoping Bailey Zappe beats Jones out for the starting job this summer.
