I think we all expected Jones to leave for the NFL, but we didn’t know for sure because of the eligibility rules for sure during the coronavirus pandemic.
Well, now it’s done for sure, and the Alabama Crimson star is taking his talents to the highest level in the sport of football.

It’s crazy how Mac Jones went from relatively unknown to likely first round pick in the NFL draft in a little more than a year.
It just goes to show how you have to stay ready for your number to be called at any time. You never know when you might get your big break.

Jones is a hell of a ball player, and I can’t wait to see what he does in the NFL. Props to him on a hell of a season in Tuscaloosa.
