Julian Edelman loves what he’s seen from Mac Jones.
During Tuesday’s “Inside the NFL” episode, Edelman broke down a particularly impressive play that Jones made during Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. During the second quarter, with the New England Patriots facing a 2nd-and-19 two plays after a Mike Onwenu holding penalty, Jones hit Kendrick Bourne for 16 yards.
Later in the drive, after another Onwenu hold, Jones again hit Bourne for a 16-yard gain. The drive eventually resulted in a go-ahead touchdown for the Patriots.
Watch Edelman talk about Jones in the video below:
Yes, the Patriots lost to Brady and the Bucs, but Jones offered more evidence that he might be a worthy heir to the G.O.A.T.
New England will visit the Houston Texans on Sunday afternoon.
