Mac Jones had coaches and teammates ‘blown away’ by his skills at Patriots rookie minicamp

After what he did in one season as Alabama’s starting quarterback, fans knew Mac Jones was ready for the pros.

He turned in the best single-season performance by a Crimson Tide signal-caller and guided the program to a College Football Playoff National Championship. Despite the San Francisco 49ers taking Trey Lance at the No. 3 overall pick, Jones landed in the perfect spot for him. He went to a head coach who mentored his collegiate coach. Bill Belichick has his guy in New England and Jones created some buzz during the Patriots’ rookie minicamp. According to a report from Justin Ramos, a source told him that Jones had an ‘amazing’ camp with the team.
