Julian Edelman is a fan of Mac Jones, but he still would like to see a little more from the rookie quarterback.
Appearing on Pardon My Take Friday, Edelman said he would like to see Jones overcome some adversity.
“You want to see the toughness of a guy," he said. "We’re seeing how he can take in the offense and he can be an efficient quarterback, but there’s going to be times where it isn’t always sunny. They are on a five-game winning streak, I want to see that last bit to see if he’s your guy. He’s their guy, but I want to see something go wrong and I want to see the man he is in an adverse situation. That’s when you see your best leaders. That’s when the Tom Brady’s, I mean I only know him, but when he goes out in any situation, when we were down a certain number of points, like you saw like a laser focus in his eyes. You want to see it.
"Everything looks great right now. He’s looking like a really good quarterback, he’s taking in the offense, he plays on time.”
Jones and the Patriots are 7-4 on the year, while Jones is completing 70% of his passes to go along with 14 touchdowns and eight interceptions.
