There might be a better situation that pops up, and Newton will obviously be ready since he works hard to stay in shape year-round. The Patriots tried to make it work in 2020, but things simply didn’t pan out. Newton has had a stellar NFL career, and for the most part, he’s been very underappreciated for the things he’s been able to accomplish on the field. Could you imagine him coming in and potentially sitting out behind Hoyer? It was hard to envision Newton sitting out as a backup to Jones. This isn’t some rookie on his first rodeo here. No, he isn’t a former league MVP like Newton, and he doesn’t bring that same element of rushing the ball to offset some of the glaring issues surrounding the team’s passing offense. But he’s an experienced veteran with 39 NFL starts. Isn’t this specifically why the Patriots have held on to a 36-year-old Hoyer for this long? I hate to be the bearer of bad news-or good news, depending on where you stand on revitalizing the Newton saga-but it’s Hoyer and Bailey Zappe from here on out, until Jones is able to step back onto the field. It’s fun to think about from a fantasy perspective, but from a reality perspective, it makes no sense for the team. Should coach Bill Belichick use up a lifeline to bring back “Superman Cam” to save the Patriots?
Of course, that’s assuming the team has zero considerations of picking up the phone and making a call to their old pal, Cam Newton. If Jones is out for a significant period of time, backup quarterback Brian Hoyer will likely take up the reins under center.
The second-year quarterback has been diagnosed with a “severe” high ankle sprain that may or may not require surgery.

Losing Mac Jones at such a critical juncture of the season is the worst thing that could happen for the New England Patriots.
