FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Quarterback Bailey Zappe and practice squad rookie Malik Cunningham took snaps in the portion of the New England Patriots practice that media were allowed to watch on Wednesday.
Starter Mac Jones and third-stringer Will Grier, who was cut and re-signed in the past week, did not get any reps with reporters watching. Zappe and Jones both declined to speak to reporters.
“(Zappe) looked good,” receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster said. “Him going out there, moving the chains, throwing the ball. He looked good.”
Jones was benched — for the fourth time this season — in a 10-7 loss to the New York Giants on Sunday.
