Yup. Shanahan always wanted him but I heard he was talked out of it and decided to take Trey Lance instead.

Lance was a complete disaster. This is Shanahan's chance to get the girl he wanted at the dance a few years ago.

“veteran”?

 

[PaulThePat]

“veteran”?

Not sure of the exact definition but in the NFL they seem to call a player a veteran if he's been around for a couple of years.

Probably his last chance to get on that Sam Darnold / Geno Smith career path.

If he can't stick around and find a home in that offense, even as a backup - it's ovah (for watah, sorry couldn't help myself)

 

[slash83]

I’m rooting for Mac!

 

[PaulThePat]

Unbeaten season and Natty winner v Mr Irrelevant. I smell a QB controversy inbound

 

[ScottishPatriots]

I would rather pay Purdy 55m a year than have Mac Jones as my quarterback that’s how big a nothing burger this is.

Mac Jones sucks, he can’t be fixed because he doesn’t have NFL stater ability we all saw it.

One who gets $5M guaranteed just for showing up to work.
Nice gig if you can get it.

He doesn't have that kind of arm talent to make up for his inability to see the field and go through his progressions.

Backup QB is such a lucrative job.

Jones showed he is an adequate backup. That's good enough for a lot of teams. Good luck to him.

I would like to see Mac with Shanny, and see if he has a Baker, Darnold type improvement.

Mac possesses zero athletic traits necessary to elevate an NFL offense.
Bank that $5 mill guaranteed, Mac....and rent on a short term lease

debatable about being an adequate backup

Rubbish. Of course he is.
