Tony Romo and NFL Fans Crushed Mac Jones After His ‘Horrendous’ INT vs. Raiders

Patriots quarterback Mac Jones was reported to be on a “short leash” for Sunday’s game against the Raiders. He didn’t do himself any favors during the first half when he threw an interception so disastrous that Tony Romo couldn’t help but blast him on the CBS broadcast. 

After scrambling out of the pocket on second down, rather than throw the ball away, Jones opted to throw across his body in the direction of Hunter Henry.

The pass was nowhere close to its target, and it ended up landing directly in the grasp of Tre’von Moehrig for what was probably the easiest interception of the DB’s career.

“He is open, Hunter Henry. This is just a horrendous throw by Mac Jones. He’s had a couple this year he wants back, but this is going to be right up there,” said Romo. 

Romo wasn’t the only one critical of Jones’s brutal pick, as NFL fans on social media offered some blunt criticism of the 25-year-old’s performance and even his future with the franchise.
