Mac Jones the next Tom Brady? Joe Namath seems some comparisons between the two QBs
Published:
The way Joe Namath tells it, Mac Jones may just prove to be the best quarterback in the 2021 NFL Draft when it’s all said and done.
During a recent appearance on The NFL Network, the legendary Jets quarterback and former Crimson Tide signal-caller was asked to evaluate Alabama’s latest quarterback.
After watching Jones last season, Namath says he sees some of the traits in the QB’s game that remind him of Tom Brady.
“I see a possibility,” Namath says in the clip below when comparing Jones and Brady. “(Brady) is one of a kind, right? But I do see Jones as comparable (coming out of college).”
That’s quite the comparison.
If the 49ers view Jones the same, it’s no wonder they are apparently enamored with the quarterback.
