With the 2021 NFL Draft rapidly approaching after the Super Bowl champions have been crowned, there is much speculation about which quarterback will go where. Could Heisman Trophy finalist Mac Jones be headed to New England to join ranks with former Auburn football players?
Possibly.
Quarterbacks are a hot commodity in this year’s draft, and the Patriots are just one of many NFL teams looking to draft a good one. New England thought they struck gold after acquiring former Auburn football player Cam Newton from the Carolina Panthers, but unfortunately, Newton regressed throughout the season.
