Mac Jones: Next Super Bowl Champ QB?

It's March 31st, from kickoff to the final whistle.

I'm Cory with the story.

Teams hunting for quarterback saviors might want to eye Mac Jones the same way they did

Sam Donald back in the day.

Donald flip from bus label to Super Bowl champ in eight years, and now Jones, sitting

as backup for the San Francisco 49ers, could pull off that same glow up.

Earlier this week, NFL comms Jeffrey Chadiha put Jones high on a list of QBs ready to bounce

back big.

He'll back up Brock Purdy again this season, but his contract ends after that, opening

doors for teams needing a starter.

In 2025, Jones stepped in for eight games when Purdy hurt his toe.

The 49ers went five and three, with Jones hitting 69.6% of passes for 2,151 yards, 13.

Touchdowns, and just six picks.

He balled out an overtime against the Rams, throwing 342 yards and two scores.

Folks are shocked, the 49ers held onto him, instead of trading for a second round pick.

With a Super Bowl push on deck, and only one year left on the deal, that depth could

pay off huge if injuries hit again.

Jones might not start till 2027, but when he gets the keys, expect him to remind everyone

why he was a top pick, keeping that franchise.

Fire alive, league wide.
