New England Patriots, Mac Jones
The New England Patriots starting quarterback Mac Jones is getting criticism from multiple spots. Still, before we get too deep into any football-related stories, it seems appropriate to wish injured Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin the best as he continues to fight and recover from suffering cardiac arrest on Monday night in Cincinnati.
Jones’ on-field behavior (tantrums and dirty play) has drawn the ire of former players and NFL analysts.
Most recently, former NFL MVP and Cincinnati Bengals star turned NFL analyst Boomer Esiason laid into Jones with some harsh criticism when he appeared as a guest on WEEI’s The Greg Hill Show on Jan. 2.
“Here’s the thing that I really dislike about Mac Jones if you want to get to the root of it: His body language, his facial expressions, his gyrations on the field piss me off. There’s a douchiness to them,” Esiason said.
Esiason isn’t the first well-known former player to take a shot at Jones’ body language and behavior. Patriots legend Julian Edelman also called out Jones’ “little pissy faces and stuff,” while discussing his former team’s collapse against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 16 on an episode of Inside the NFL.

“I don’t know how else to explain it. Here’s the deal: Tom Brady can be douchey too at times,” Esiason explained as he compared Jones to the former Patriots and current Tampa Bay Buccaneers star.
