The New England Patriots’ pass rush was one of the biggest concerns entering the season, but rookie Gabe Jacas may be changing that conversation. Can he build on his impressive debut against the Pittsburgh Steelers? On today’s Patriots HIT, Zac Blackerby breaks down why Jacas deserves a bigger role after recording a sack, two tackles for loss and a quarterback hit in just 19 defensive snaps against the Seattle Seahawks. Dre’Mont Jones also made plays, giving New England reason for optimism about its edge rushers. But can the Patriots deliver that same pressure against Pittsburgh and put together two strong performances in a row? PLUS, Mack Hollins’ reworked contract incentives raise some interesting questions about his role in the Patriots’ offense. Hollins discussed why he agreed to tougher reception incentives and how much staying in New England mattered to him. With A.J. Brown expected to miss time and Hollins emerging as a trusted target for Drake Maye in the fourth quarter, could his opportunities increase against the Steelers? We also discuss the reported trade interest in Hollins, the Patriots’ decision to move Ke’Shawn Boutte instead, and what the situation might say about the culture Mike Vrabel is building. Should Gabe Jacas get more snaps, and how big of a role will Mack Hollins play this season? Let us know in the comments!
