New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones has undergone a lot of preparation as he looks to make his first start against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. In addition to his coaches and teammates, his girlfriend has been helping him memorize plays following days on the gridiron.
Tuesday, Jones appeared on the Merloni and Fauria Show. He indicated that after he leaves practice at Gillette Stadium, his girlfriend helps him walk through the plays.
Jones noted that seeing the plays helps him memorize them. He is a visual learner, and seeing the plays allows him to get them down pat.
“She does a good job,” Jones told Merloni and Fauria. “Most of the time she just walks through them in the yard, she helps me a lot.”
“It helps to see it,” he said. “Whether it’s drawing it or walking through it.”
It remains to be seen how he will do on Sunday. For now, it’s clear that he is getting as much preparation in as possible.
