Mac Jones Taking First-Team Reps In Practice Tuesday

12 months ago

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones took the first-team repetitions in the portion of practice open to the media on Tuesday. Jones was followed by Bailey Zappe then rotated in, but Jones took most of the reps in the four minutes of practice that the media was allowed to watch. The Patriots benched the ineffective Jones with the game on the line at the end of the fourth quarter in favor of Zappe in the Week 10 loss to the Indianapolis Colts in Germany, leading many to believe they'd be moving on from Jones after their Week 11 bye. But the 25-year-old looks to have another shot at convincing Bill Belichick he's the starter this week in practice. Other than Zappe, Will Grier and rookie Malik Cunningham are New England's other options. No matter who is under center for the Pats in Week 12 against the New York Giants, the offense is likely to continue struggling.
