Mac Jones and the New England Patriots have plenty of work to do in the 2023 NFL season. Not only because they come from a disappointing campaign, but also because the AFC East looks stacked this year.

The Buffalo Bills look ready to come back stronger after falling short last year, the Miami Dolphins have strengthened their roster and the New York Jets are building around Aaron Rodgers.

The Patriots’ offense struggled big time in 2022, which is why the team is making changes for this season. In an attempt to help Jones in his third year, the team is reportedly closing in on the arrival of a top wide receiver.
