Earlier Friday, when asked what he would need to see from Jones for him to play, Belichick added: &#8220;That will be a decision made by the medical people, in consultation with Mac, of course.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Belichick said there are situations when a player might be less than 100% but could still play and that then it would be a coach&#8217;s decision.  But that didn&#8217;t seem to be the case with Jones, who hardly moved or stepped into any throws in the limited time he was on the practice field Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Hoyer, 36, has lost his last 11 starts dating back to the 2016 season, but Belichick expressed confidence in him.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He knows [the offense] better than anybody.  He has had a lot of experience, been in a lot of different systems, seen a lot of football, taken a lot of snaps for us in various capacities,&#8221; Belichick said.<\/p>\n<p>Hoyer was 13-of-18 for 136 yards with one touchdown and zero interceptions in the preseason.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You never want to see anyone get hurt, ever. And we all know Mac&#8217;s hunger to compete to be out there,&#8221; Hoyer said.  &#8220;For me, you support him, but also be ready to play in the same sense.
