Mac Jones has been the talk of the town since he arrived on the scene in Foxborough. He finally got to add a TD to the books against the Giants.
Everyone has been excited to see how Mac Jones would perform for the New England Patriots. He’s a formidable heir apparent to Cam Newton, something that has caused a bit of hoopla in the off season and training camps.
In just a few weeks, he’s carved a name for himself on the Patriots roster as a solid QB and great asset to the team. He had Twitter in awe and excitement for his future as a professional quarterback, so much so that rumors swirled that he’d snag Newton’s spot.
But there was one problem, he didn’t have any TDs to his name. Until now.

Jones has been a pleasure to watch, with touchdown passes or without, but to not have any is a bit alarming considering the hype has been built around him all season. Luckily his drought finally comes to an end.
In the third quarter, Jones launches a pass to Isaiah Zuber with such precision and attention to detail that you can’t help but wait to see how the rest of his career pans out. The former Bama star has shown that the Pats future is definitely in good hands.
