Mac Jones’ Girlfriend Was Crucial During QB’s COVID Training At Alabama

Mac Jones probably wouldn’t be where he now is without Sophie Scott’s help.
The New England Patriots quarterback’s girlfriend played an indispensable role in helping him win the job as Alabama’s starting quarterback for the 2020 season. Jones couldn’t access Alabama’s facilities during part of the COVID-19 pandemic but he continued to work on his craft, and Scott helped him each step of the way.
The Athletic’s Jeff Howe explained Friday in a column how she supported Jones:

When the NCAA shut down football facilities during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Jones set up a net in the living room of his apartment, gathered a bag of footballs, took them outside and fired passes through an open window to stay sharp. Then after teaching his girlfriend the Alabama playbook, they’d go to the gym at night and set up more nets, and she’d shout out plays so he could make the subsequent checks and deliver more passes. It was all part of his mission to win the starting job in a competition against five-star recruit Bryce Young."


"Jones didn’t just win the job in his junior year. He led Alabama to an undefeated season and the national championship, earning himself recognition as a Heisman Trophy finalist. He also boosted his draft stock to that of a first-rounder, and the Patriots picked him No. 15 overall."

She sounds like a keeper and a gem.

The Patriots are on in Alaska, huh? Who knew the Last Frontier was a hotbed of Patriots fandom? Cool.

You can tell I haven't watched much football the past few years, I had no idea that defensive linemen & linebackers are wearing single digit & low double digit numbers.
