You can’t say the New England Patriots have failed to put their financial support behind quarterback Mac Jones in his second season. They certainly have. New England is dedicating more cap space than any other NFL team to the receiver position in 2022, according to Spotrac.
With salary cap numbers, looks can be deceiving. So I’d like to also present you with a few other figures before I dive into what it means. New England is third in the NFL in positional sending at receiver, per Over The Cap. The Patriots are spending the 10th-most money in new cash (through salary and bonuses), per Spotrac.
