time in New England was certainly short, to say the least.\u00a0 Fortunately, it sounds like the club finally closed the book on the Arizona State standout, at least financially.<\/p>\n<p>According to Patriots salary cap expert Miguel Benzan, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.patsfans.com\/patriots\/blog\/2022\/04\/30\/patriots-4th-round-pick-jack-jones-a-talented-cb-out-of-arizona-state\/\"><strong>former 2022 fourth-round draft pick <\/strong><\/a>finally ended his salary grievance, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/patscap\/status\/1807399143507193885\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>receiving $23,889 in cash this offseason<\/strong><\/a>, which stemmed from the suspension he received from the team back at the end of the 2022 season.\u00a0 Benzan points out that sum is 1\/18th of the $430k salary for Jones that year.<\/p>\n<p>Jones&#8217; grievance originated from the disagreement over the team&#8217;s punishment, which happened after he suffered a knee injury that season but missed team-mandated appointments during his rehabilitation process.\u00a0 He ultimately ended up on injured reserve at the end of the season.<\/p>\n<p>MMQB analyst Albert Breer appeared on NBC Sports Boston after things unfolded and talked about the embattled defensive back&#8217;s situation, which he claimed also included an issue between Jones and then-head coach Bill Belichick.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My understanding of the way that went is, (Jones) was late to rehab sessions, he missed rehab sessions,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsportsboston.com\/nfl\/new-england-patriots\/reported-jack-jones-suspension-details-should-concern-patriots-fans\/282342\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>said Breer back in January<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0 &#8220;And I think he even talked back to Bill a little bit about it, to the point where Bill felt like he had to address it in a team meeting two Fridays ago.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Jones denied any confrontation with Belichick last June, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/presidentjacc\/status\/1666925284367429634?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>firing back at Breer over the report on social media<\/strong><\/a>, saying, &#8220;I never mouthed off at Bill idk where y&#8217;all getting that from,&#8221; adding, &#8220;please don&#8217;t write false stories.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After the season came to an end, Belichick appeared to put things in the rearview, saying back in March of 2023 that the discipline involving his player was \u201cover,\u201d with the club clearing the air heading into that season and trying to get off to a fresh start.<\/p>\n<div class=\"m-0 p-0 pb-0\" style=\"background-color: #313131;

Patriots coach Jerod Mayo came up learning from Bill Belichick, who despised turnovers. Last season, Douglas matched Mac Jones for the most fumbles on the team (each had three) despite only touching the ball 57 times. If he doesn\u2019t take better care of the ball this season, Mayo could drop him down the depth chart.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ball security was definitely an issue, especially during the early part of the year.\u00a0 He fumbled in Week 2 against Miami, and lost it twice in a November meeting at MetLife stadium against the Giants, although one of those came <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/AlexWilsonESM\/status\/1728871401598386363\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>following a violent hit that was essentially a clothesline<\/strong><\/a>, knocking him out of the game.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas ultimately led all receivers in receptions last season, finishing with 49 catches for 561 yards.\u00a0 Only running back Ezekiel Elliott finished ahead of him, catching 51 passes for 313 yards and two touchdowns.<\/p>\n<p>The rookie also led the team in third-down receptions, catching 13 passes for 172 yards and moving the chains on seven of those catches.<\/p>\n<p>Given his shiftiness and his ability to get open in key situations, one would have to believe they&#8217;ll figure out a way to get him on the field.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully, with a full season under his belt and more experience, we&#8217;ll see any issues end up in the rearview as he looks to build on things ahead of his sophomore campaign.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Odds and Ends<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Douglas has indeed been grinding it out recently, with the young wideout apparently working out with Drake Maye&#8217;s former teammate, Josh Downs after Douglas <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/LosTalksPats\/status\/1807892067533967803\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>posted a photo of the two on his Instagram page<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0 Despite this off period, it doesn&#8217;t appear to be stopping him from preparing for the upcoming season. &#8230; With the calendar turning to July, the Patriots currently find themselves just 17 days away from when rookies report to Foxboro ahead of training camp.\u00a0 Raise your hand if you&#8217;re also looking forward to this dead period being over with and football officially kicking off. &#8230; Happy Birthday to Troy Brown, who turns 53 today.\u00a0 The former 8th-round draft choice (yes, there were once more than 7 rounds in the draft) was taken 198th overall in 1993, and it&#8217;s still only fitting that the former Patriots great was taken there while Tom Brady was taken 199th in 2000. &#8230; According to Draft Kings, the Patriots are currently +15000 to win the Super Bowl this year, tied with Denver and Tennessee.\u00a0 The only team currently with lower odds is the Carolina Panthers at +25000.\u00a0 I&#8217;m not a gambler, and unlike that 2001 team, there are so many questions and uncertainty with this group, which would make putting up any money a little tough.\u00a0 Playing in February certainly feels like it would take an unprecedented miracle at this point, but nevertheless, it should still be an interesting season to follow. &#8230; According to the Northwest Arkansas Democrat and Gazette, tight end Hunter Henry is back in his home state working with kids at a local football camp.\u00a0 &#8220;I got reached out to about this opportunity and I jumped at it,&#8221; Henry <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nwaonline.com\/news\/2024\/jul\/02\/razorbacks-salute\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>told the publication<\/strong><\/a> Monday. &#8220;It&#8217;s always good to be in Arkansas, especially Little Rock or close to Little Rock.
