Mac Jones isn’t much of a Twitter guy.
Before Tuesday, he had tweeted only twice in the past six months. One of the tweets was to say that he wanted to play this season at a time when officials were debating shutting things down.
His second tweet was to support the decision to move forward with the season.
Jones went silent after that. He and his teammates chose to focus on one thing: winning a national championship. Jones went to work, put up a season that saw him finish third in Heisman Trophy voting, and he and his teammates were rewarded with the title.
Here was the first tweet Jones sent in five months:
It’s awesome to see how things went for him and his teammates. They lobbied to play, stayed disciplined and worked hard and they won it all. Jones also is arguing that this was the best team in college football history. We know something else: it’s one of Nick Saban’s favorite teams.
