Well, it’s time to see what the New England Patriots think of Jarrett Stidham.

Shortly after Brady made his announcement, odds to be the Patriots’ Week 1 quarterback were revealed.

As you can see, the oddsmakers like the chances of the Pats’ 2019 draft pick to be under center when next season begins. Interesting though that they don’t rule out a Jimmy Garoppolo reunion.
Regardless, it’s going to be a fascinating fallout to watch unfold.
