“It wasn’t our day today,” Jones said after the Jaguars lost to the Detroit Lions 52-6. The Lions scored touchdowns on their first seven possessions, then kicked a field goal and ran out the final 6:45 on the clock to complete their rout.

The Jacksonville Jaguars will start QB Mac Jones for the second consecutive week. How confident are they in his abilities?

Jones’ contract, which runs through the 2024 season, includes a base salary of $2,785,412 for this year. Despite the initial promise he showed, the Jaguars decided to decline his fifth-year option, which would have been worth $25.7 million. This decision means that Jones will become a free agent in 2025, opening up new possibilities for his career.
