The Patriots’ 2022 season was a disappointing outing for Mac Jones, but teammate Jakobi Meyers says he’s proud of how the quarterback handled tough moments.
After putting together a rookie Pro Bowl campaign in 2021, Jones and the New England offense regressed this fall, as injuries and poor execution stunted the quarterback’s growth.
But even though the season didn’t go as planned, Jones seemingly maintained the respect of New England’s locker room — especially his trusted target Meyers.
When asked on Monday what he learned about Jones this season, Meyers opted to focus more on the second-year quarterback’s ability to battle through adversity, even as some Patriots fans were calling for backup QB Bailey Zappe to play.
