#2 New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones is not surprised that he won the starting job for the Patriots saying “Not really. Like I always say, I prepare to be the starter. I got a chance to get a lot of reps. Nothing really changes.”

#3 Jones also said that he got along with Cam Newton who was released from the team that he was there to help Cam and Cam was there to help him. Jones said he hopes Newton lands somewhere and that he is a great guy.

#4 Jessica turning to baseball, Former St Louis Cardinal and current Los Angeles Dodger Albert Pujols had a memorable evening hitting his career 679th home run against his former team on Tuesday night to a standing ovation.
