The receiver goes from Patrick Mahomes to Mac Jones.
We knew that the Patriots were looking for a number 1 receiver. After attempts to recover DeAndre Hopkins or Jerry Jeudy, it was finally JuJu Smith-Schuster who arrived in the New England franchise.
According to NFL Media, the receiver will sign a 3-year, $33 million contract, the same contract that Jakobi Meyers received with the Raiders.
The 26-year-old receiver will know his 3rd career team after the Steelers and the Chiefs, with whom he was champion in 2022. He posted honorable statistics last season with 78 receptions, 933 yards and 3 touchdowns in 16 regular season games . Also with a great performance at the Super Bowl with 7 receptions, 53 yards.
It is therefore a number 1 target offered by the Patriots to Mac Jones, who will be in his 3rd season as a quarterback on the side of Foxborough.
