Mac Jones Ruled Out for Patriots vs. Packers, Brian Hoyer to Start

The Patriots officially ruled quarterback Mac Jones out for Sunday’s game against the undefined, which means backup quarterback Brian Hoyer is expected to get the start.

Jones first injured his ankle in the Patriots final offensive play last week vs. Baltimore. He hopped off the field and needed to be helped into the locker room after the game ended. The team kept pushing back making a decision on Jones for this week, and the quarterback dressed for practice on Friday. Ultimately, Jones did not practice at all this week.
