When asked earlier this week whether or not he plans on playing in the preseason game versus the Carolina Panthers, Mac Jones had a simple answer: “I hope so.”
It appears the New England Patriots’ starting quarterback will get his wish. According to a report by ESPN Boston’s Mike Reiss, Jones and the rest of the team’s healthy starters will indeed take the field against Carolina on Friday night.
Jones and the starting offense will therefore make their preseason debut after sitting out last week’s opener versus the New York Giants.
