Mac Jones Channels His Inner Happy Gilmore Claiming He Enjoys Getting Hit “Kind Of The Fun Part”

Kings of Boston Sports



Through the first few weeks of the season Mac Jones has been getting hit at an alarming rate. While most quarterbacks would be upset at their offensive line, Mac Jones takes a Happy Gilmore approach to it, and actually seems to enjoy it. This kid is an animal and you have to love his mental toughness, but the Pats need to get Trent Brown back in at right tackle before this kid gets hurt. It has been like a turnstyle since his injury.

“I think it’s just part of the game,” Jones said. “Like backyard football, you’re going to get hit. That’s kind of the fun part of it. You just roll with the punches and get up. And a lot of the stuff — I always say this, and I’m not saying it just to say it, but I can do a better job of whether it’s moving or getting the ball out or just committing to the throw, whatever the throw may be. Just learning from those hits.

“The offensive line played well — actually, really good. Of course you’re going to get hit sometimes when a team’s going to pressure more, and you’ve just got to roll with the punches.”
