Not to mention that any shot the second-year QB takes where he&#8217;s wrapped up around his feet could potentially reaggravate the injury and drag out his recovery.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Brian Hoyer wasn&#8217;t present for the session but newcomer Garrett Gilbert was out there with Jones and Bailey Zappe, with Zappe being <a href=\"https:\/\/www.patsfans.com\/patriots\/blog\/2022\/10\/05\/rookie-qb-zappe-tasked-with-trying-to-prevent-patriots-third-straight-loss\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>the most likely candidate to get the nod<\/strong> <\/a>this week.\u00a0 According to reports, Jones didn&#8217;t take part in the team stretching portion of practice.<\/p>\n<p>With Hoyer out, it&#8217;s possible Jones was just out there to advise Gilbert, as the newcomer would likely earn the designation as the back-up behind Zappe this weekend if Jones can&#8217;t go, with Jones potentially being the emergency quarterback.<\/p>\n<p>The team is currently preparing for the Detroit Lions, who will visit Foxboro this Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patriots quarterback Mac Jones was back at practice again on Wednesday, which doesn&#8217;t make much sense given the
