Two of the best quarterbacks to come out of the previous two NFL Drafts go head-to-head in Los Angeles on Sunday.
Last season’s Offensive Rookie of the Year Justin Herbert and the Chargers welcome rookie Mac Jones and the Patriots to SoFi Stadium.
Jones hasn’t been as stellar as Herbert was in his rookie campaign, but he’s been impressive. He’s thrown 1,779 yards this season (13th in the league for passing yards per game), with nine touchdowns, and six interceptions. Jones’s 70.4 completion percentage is the fourth-best in the league.
With the solid play to start his career, Jones has earned praise among NFL experts, who have ranked him among some of the league’s best young quarterbacks.
