Patriots coach Bill Belichick has long been very good friends with Nick Saban and has shown great interest in acquiring his former players in recent years.
Mac Jones and the New England Patriots made a big statement in Sunday’s 45-7 route of the Cleveland Browns. The Patriots certainly found their rhythm as a team having won their fourth consecutive game to improve to 6-4 on the season.
After a competitive summer between Cam Newton and Mac Jones for the starting job, the Patriots ended their preseason on Sunday night against the Giants.
While it isn’t certain the Newton has secured the starting position, Alabama fans need to remember that Belichick has never started a rookie quarterback since he came to New England.
