Scott, who has been dating Jones since 2019, has proudly supported the quarterback throughout his career, even making a recent appearance at training camp.
New England is entering its first season without longtime offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, who became head coach of the Raiders in January. In his absence, senior staffers Joe Judge and Matt Patricia have been focusing on the offense, which has produced lackluster results.

“Distress lobs into traffic just to get ball out. Beginning to feel it’s less the new offense and more the post-Scar cycle of OL coaches. They are perpetually overwhelmed.”
Both Judge and Patricia — who previously served as the Patriots special teams and defensive coordinators, respectively — called plays in Thursday’s 23-21 loss to the Giants. Patricia called plays in the opening series, per ESPN, with Judge handling the duties after rookie quarterback Bailey Zappe hit the field.

“I’m going to figure it out. I always have. I always will,” Jones told reporters last Tuesday. “At the end of the day, you’re going to have your ups and downs with anything new … I think we’re close on a lot of things. It’s just that 2% we need to fix.”
