Mac Jones’ Teammates Reportedly Sick of His Prima Donna Behavior
According to a recent report by Greg Bedard of the Boston Sports Journal, some of Mac Jones teammates are reportedly “sick” of him for, acting like a prima donna around the team.
Jones, who was drafted in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft, has had a rocky start to his professional career. Jones was benched in favor of Bailey Zappe halfway through the season, and the way he handled the situation apparently rubbed his teammates the wrong way.
“Everyone’s watched him play, they’ve watched him act like a prima donna,” said a team source to Bedard. “The team is sick of it, everyone’s sick of it” .
Jones has not yet responded to the allegations, but the story has already gone viral on social media.
