After releasing Cam Newton before the 2021 season, the New England Patriots made it known that Mac Jones would be their starting QB of the future and he turned in a solid season and led the team to the postseason in his rookie year.
On Tuesday, ex-Patriots tight end Jermaine Wiggins said on “The Greg Hill Show” on WEEI that he would like to see his old team take a big step and look to trade Jones for either Deshaun Watson or Russell Wilson.
“We have seen, in order for you to win a Super Bowl, you must have an elite quarterback, and you don’t have that,” Wiggins said.
“I would love to trade him [Jones] to Seattle because they clearly have issues with Russell Wilson,” Wiggins said. “He wants out. Pete Carroll gets the quarterback that he can control for the price that he wants. ? And then you as the New England Patriots, getting back to the Super Bowl, because this is what it’s for, you get a top-seven quarterback in the NFL in Russell Wilson, who still has seven elite years ahead of him.”
