After Leading the 49ers to a Third Straight Thrilling Victory, Former Patriots QB Did Not Forget to Pay Tribute to His Old Team in New England
Foxborough, September 22, 2025
The San Francisco 49ers continued their dominant run, securing a thrilling 16-15 victory over the Arizona Cardinals at Levi’s Stadium, improving their record to 3-0 this season. The game also marked a significant milestone in the career of Mac Jones – the former New England Patriots quarterback who spent four seasons with the team.
With Brock Purdy sidelined due to injury, Jones was given the opportunity to start as QB. He rose to the occasion, displaying poise and precision in critical passing plays, helping the 49ers maintain their winning streak and solidify their status as top contenders in the NFC West.
Post-game, Mac Jones surprised many by offering heartfelt gratitude to his former team – the Patriots – where he faced challenges but also built the foundation for his current success. “The Patriots made me who I am today. Though my time at Gillette was a tough period, I learned so much from that experience and I deeply value those lessons and memories. If the opportunity ever comes, I would be ready to return.” Jones shared in a post-game interview.
During his four years in New England, Jones had a promising rookie season, leading the Patriots back to the playoffs. However, subsequent seasons brought ups and downs, with pressures that led to inconsistent performances. His move to San Francisco in March 2025 opened a new chapter, and now, Jones is making the most of it.
The win over the Cardinals not only reinforced the 49ers’ strength but also served as a statement: Mac Jones is ready to forge ahead in his new journey. While he now dons the fiery red and gold, Foxborough remains the starting point, leaving him with invaluable lessons that continue to shape his career
