Mac Jones could top out at 'very good.' He might just remain OK. But if he’s ever going to appear in the last game of an NFL season he’ll need a lot of help.
Now that they are pointed in the right direction, a simple truth needs to be faced.
Jones is halfway through his rookie contract. If the Patriots decide to pick up his fifth-year option for 2025, that will likely be around $25 million guaranteed but as much as $35 million if Jones is selected to a couple of Pro Bowls the next two years.For comparison, Jones will make $2.7 million in salary and have about a $5 million cap hit in 2024.
Why? Well, first off, Brady was the 199th pick. As a result, Brady was eternally grateful for the chance he was given by Belichick in 2001. Also -- even though Brady earned everything -- he was put in position to succeed every single time he was on the field. He got brilliant coaching. The prospect of taking less with the promise of competing for a Super Bowl every year? Yes please, said Brady.
There’s time between now and then. But this upcoming season is pivotal for both the Patriots and Jones.
