The New England Patriots are a 2025 NFL phenomenon. From the bottom of the AFC East, they've risen from the ashes like a phoenix to the top of the AFC. It all starts with Mike Vrabel and Drake Maye, but they've had a lot of help. One is punt returner Marcus Jones, who now possesses the highest punt return average in NFL history. And that's not even half his story.
Jones is also a top slot cornerback, and though he stands only 5'8" tall, he plays much bigger. He's one of the Patriots' top three cornerbacks.
