Alabama Crimson Tide outside linebacker and top draft prospect Will Anderson isn’t buying into the questions regarding Mac Jones’ leadership as the starting quarterback for the New England Patriots.
Why would he listen to outside noise when he has his own personal experiences with Jones?
The two played together at the University of Alabama, and according to Anderson, a one-on-one exchange with Jones served as an impactful motivational moment for him early in his collegiate career.
“True story: Mac Jones was a great teammate,” Anderson said at the NFL Scouting Combine, per NESN’s Zack Cox.
