"FOXBOROUGH - Jarrett Stidham is a former Patriots quarterback who is set to start the AFC championship against his former team after Bo Nix broke a bone in his ankle during Denver's win against Buffalo last Saturday. Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels certainly knows about Stidham's game, having coaching him in New England and Las Vegas. But there are just a handful of Patriots players left on the roster from Stidham's time there."
""I remember that he's a competitor, someone that took his job seriously," Jennings said. "Somebody that prepared the right way. Somebody that knows how to play football like an NFL quarterback and somebody that we've got to prepare for." Onwenu overlapped with Stidham on the Patriots offense in 2020 and 2021. "I mean, obviously, I'm blocking for him, so I can't really speak to him or his play, but I think he was a great quarterback," Onwenu said."
Jarrett Stidham, a former Patriots quarterback, will start the AFC championship against his former team after Bo Nix suffered an ankle fracture during Denver's win over Buffalo. Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels has familiarity with Stidham from coaching him in New England and Las Vegas. Only a few current Patriots, including Anfernee Jennings and Mike Onwenu from the 2020 draft class, overlap with Stidham’s Patriots tenure. Jennings described Stidham as a serious, well-prepared competitor. Several Patriots players have limited knowledge of Stidham and plan to study game tape to prepare.
