Peter Schrager buckles down on Patriots QB Mac Jones as MVP candidate

NFL Network insider Peter Schrager is doubling down on his idea that Mac Jones could be an MVP candidate in the 2022 season.

Jones had a solid rookie year — passing for 3,801 yards, 22 touchdowns and 13 interceptions. He looks to continue the positive momentum heading into the 2022 season. Jones struggled at the beginning of last season, but managed to find his footing at the season’s midpoint. He helped New England compile a seven-game winning streak, one that helped put the team into playoff contention.

Jones will have his work cut out for him this season, with a new offense and new group of receivers.
