Mac Jones will take the field tonight for his second NFL preseason game with the New England Patriots.
Before he faces the Eagles, Jones became the fourth student-athlete from the University of Alabama to win a prestigious award.
According to the College Sports Information Directors of America or CoSIDA, the former Crimson Tide quarterback was named the Academic All-American of the Year for his efforts in 2020. Jones led Alabama to a Southeastern Conference title and a College Football Playoff National Championship last season. He guided the Tide to its second perfect season of the Nick Saban era.
