Mac Jones, JuJu Smith-Schuster, and most Patriots starters aren’t expected to play tonight as the team opens their preseason schedule with a visit from the Houston Texans. The Pats have two sets of joint practices looming (one in Green Bay and one in Tennessee) and Bill Belichick values that time as a chance for starters to get meaningful reps against another team. That lessens the need for starters to play Thursday night at Gillette Stadium. So expect Bailey Zappe to get the nod at starting quarterback with Trace McSorley entering the game after that, and potentially rookie wide receiver/quarterback Malik Cunningham mixing into the rotation under center, too.
