Update:

Jones who signed a four-year contract worth $15,586,352 with the Patriots, was traded to the Jaguars in a move that surprised the NFL world. The fact that Belichick is no longer with New England has change everything for the young QB. It was the legendary coach who even compared him with Tom Brady.

His 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.

What options does Mac Jones have for the 2025 season?

Since the Jaguars declined his fifth-year option, Jones will become an unrestricted free agent in March 2025. This means he can negotiate with any team in the NFL, potentially finding a starting role or a backup position elsewhere

Although the Jaguars declined his fifth-year option, they could still choose to re-sign him at a lower cost. This would depend on his performance in the 2024 season and the team’s assessment of his future potential.
