Patriots Insider: Mac Jones 'Impressive'; Lit Up Minicamp, 'Out-Duels Bailey Zappe'

Having an offensive coordinator with a proven track record in the NFL seems to be agreeing with Mac Jones.

Per Mark Daniels of MassLive.com, the New England Patriots quarterback had an "impressive" showing during Monday's mandatory minicamp practice as he "out-duels Bailey Zappe" while lighting up the stat sheet.

While they don't keep official count of stats during practice, Daniels recorded Jones as completing 25 consecutive passes at one point between seven-on-seven and 11-on-11 drills.

Zappe went 19-of-25 combined in seven-on-seven and 11-on-11 drills. Doug Kyed of AtoZSports.com noted Jones has "taken almost all" of the first-team reps, with Zappe and Trace McSorley "relegated to backup duties.
