The decision has been debated by NFL insiders and fans ever since, and former Patriots player Jermaine Wiggins has publicly questioned Belichick’s quarterback choice.
Wiggins believes Bill Belichick’s decision could turn out to be “really ugly”
Wiggins spoke with NBC Boston yesterday about why he thinks Bill Belichick made a mistake in choosing Mac Jones over Cam Newton.
The former Patriots tight end is worried about the pressure the team is placing on Mac Jones.
After all the offseason moves the New England Patriots have made, Wiggins believes the team should make the playoffs. He’s not confident that a rookie QB is the right leader for this Pats squad.
Jermaine Wiggins played tight end for the Pats for two seasons from 2000-2002. He was a part of the team that won the franchise’s first NFL championship at Super Bowl XXXVI against the St. Louis Rams.
Jones will get his first chance to prove Jermaine Wiggins wrong when the Patriots face the Miami Dolphins on September 12.
