“I’ve told all the players the same thing, be ready to go. So, hopefully they will be,” said Belichick.
Bill Belichick’s phrase of the day was, “I’ve told everybody to be ready.” The Patriots coach used a variation of it roughly a dozen times Tuesday as reporters asked questions about the quarterback situation.
Has Belichick decided who the starting quarterback will be on Sunday against the Giants?
“I’ve told all the players the same thing, be ready to go. So, hopefully they will be,” said Belichick.
With Mac Jones coming off of his third benching in 10 games and Bailey Zappe completing just 40 percent of his passes this season, is there a chance Malik Cunningham could see some action?
“I told every player to be ready to play,” said Belichick. “So, we’ll see how things go, and we’ll go from there.”
At what point in the week should the team know its starting quarterback?
“Everybody needs to be ready to go. So, that’s where we are for today,” Belichick said. “Today’s Tuesday, go out there, be prepared, be ready to take advantage of their opportunities. Then, we’ll go to Wednesday.”
There has been no confirmation from Belichick or offensive coordinator Bill O’Brien about who will start.
There’s a chance it could be Jones again. The Patriots have started him every game this season no matter the results.
