Matt Jones closed the chapter of his Rocky New England career when the Patriots traded him to the Jaguars in March he's flourished in the preseason since turning the page to Duval but despite a third solid outing in a row his coach Doug Peterson noted the backup quarterback does occasionally slipped back into Old Habits Mack has played extremely well the last couple of weeks and really has bought into what we do Peterson said Friday following Jacksonville's 31 to zero drubbing of the Atlanta Falcons he'll still revert back to his Patriot ways every now and then and we got to remind him he's in Jacksonville but he's done a good job he's done a good job managing and running the offense getting everybody involved he sees the field well throws a good ball so he's done a good job after 3 years of NFL tape on Jones there's plenty of ammo for Peterson to take such a shot at his QB even if it was light-hearted the number 15 overall pick in 2021 Jones initially looked like he might limit New England's suffering Sans a franchise signal caller to just one season post Tom Brady he won 10 games in his first year to lead the Patriots to the playoffs as a pro bowler and second place finisher and offensive rookie of the year instead of building on his early successes he struggled over the past two years to an 8 to 17 record in 25 starts Jones New England Legacy became marked by clumsiness in the pocket shotty decision- making when rushed in a lack of ball security as evidenced by his 36 career interceptions and 15 fumbles
