Former New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones continues to struggle with his new team. Starting a second straight game in place of an injured Trevor Lawrence, he had an active hand in the Jacksonville Jaguars getting blown out 52-6 by the Detroit Lions on Sunday.

With Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence ruled out for the upcoming game against the Detroit Lions with an injury to his non-throwing shoulder, Jones will get his second chance to lead Jacksonville.

Jones’ contract, which runs through the 2024 season, includes a base salary of $2,785,412 for this year. Despite the initial promise he showed, the Jaguars decided to decline his fifth-year option, which would have been worth $25.7 million. This decision means that Jones will become a free agent in 2025, opening up new possibilities for his career.
