The Patriots officially ruled quarterback Mac Jones out for Sunday’s game against the Green Bay Packers, which means backup quarterback Brian Hoyer is expected to get the start.
Jones first injured his ankle in the Patriots final offensive play last week vs. Baltimore. He hopped off the field and needed to be helped into the locker room after the game ended. The team kept pushing back making a decision on Jones for this week, and the quarterback dressed for practice on Friday. Ultimately, Jones did not practice at all this week.
So far this season, Mac Jones is 1-2 with 786 passing yards, two touchdown passes and five interceptions.
