New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones took to Instagram for the first time since August to thank the fans following a whirlwind 2021 season.
For Jones, it was a productive year. He threw for 3,801 yards, 22 touchdowns, and 13 interceptions. The Patriots went 10-7 in the regular season, before falling to the Buffalo Bills in the AFC wild-card game. Over the course of the regular season, the Patriots started 2-4, but managed to win seven games in a row to put themselves back in playoff contention.
Jones was a big part of the Patriots’ ability to right the ship in the regular season. Now, he will look to build on it for 2022.
With free-agent decisions looming for the Patriots, this team may look a bit different next fall. However, one thing is for certain. Jones is undoubtedly the centerpiece of the Patriots’ future.
