EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Coming off a game in which he was benched following a late fourth-quarter interception, quarterback Mac Jones was given the start by New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick on Sunday against the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium.

Belichick hadn't told Jones and top backup Bailey Zappe of his plans throughout the week of practice leading up to the game. His message was that everybody, at every position, needed to be ready.
