Mac Jones clearly was not intimidated in his first Pro Bowl.
The New England Patriots rookie quarterback, who was mic'd up for the NFL's annual all-star game, dished out a hearty helping of trash talk to a pair of veteran NFC defenders after he found Las Vegas Raiders receiver Hunter Renfrow for a third-quarter touchdown.
"Where were you at?" Jones asked Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Devin White, who sacked him on the ensuing two-point conversion. "Where were you at the whole drive? The whole drive. The whole drive you were playing on your phone."
Jones then turned to Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay, who was in coverage on the touchdown. Slay had Renfrow blanketed, but Jones beat him with a perfectly placed pass while scrambling to his right.
"What's up, bro?" the QB said. "Remember when I torched y'all in training camp? That was like training camp, when I torched y'all."
"We whooped your ass in training camp," Slay replied.
"No way," Jones said. "When I went in?"

The Patriots and Eagles competed in a pair of joint practices ahead of their preseason matchup last summer. At the time, Jones was competing with incumbent Cam Newton for the starting job. He eventually won that job and went on to start every game for the Patriots as a rookie, making the Pro Bowl as an alternate.
Jones was the definitive star of the Pro Bowl episode of "Game Day All Access," which was released Wednesday. To watch the full episode, click here.
