Brian Hoyer unfazed by ‘bad memory’ of 2020 spot start vs. Chiefs

The Red Sox notched a 3-1 win over the Orioles on Wednesday, with 42-year-old Rich Hill pitching six scoreless innings and totaling nine strikeouts.

The two teams will meet again this afternoon at 1:35 p.m. at Fenway Park in the series finale.

Brian Hoyer discussed (likely) upcoming start: Though it’s not official — with, if it was still unclear, the Patriots taking things “day-by-day” regarding the status of Mac Jones — it appears that backup quarterback Brian Hoyer will play in Week 4 against the Packers.

With Jones likely out due to a high-ankle sprain, the 36-year-old Hoyer looks set to get his first start since 2020, when emergency circumstances thrust him into the role against the Chiefs on short notice.
