In another life, Mac Jones is starring on the silver screen instead of throwing darts for the New England Patriots.

Jones appeared on WEEI radio’s "Merloni & Fauria" in his usual weekly spot and was asked about some of the jobs he had prior to being the Patriots quarterback and before that the Alabama quarterback.

"First job is doing yard work for my dad. At first, I’d do it for free. Eventually, me and my brother scheming him up for money," Jones said.

He added that he did commercials when he was a child but didn’t like it.

"I used to be a child model/actor, or whatever, and that was fun. … There are a few commercials out there you guys could try and find. I broke the camera," he said. 

"I think a lot of people know," he added.

Oh, what could’ve been.

Some of his acting photos surfaced on Twitter on Monday as well.

What would’ve happened if Jones had pursued the acting route? We’ll never know.

For now, there are more dreams about how the Patriots’ season will end than what Jones can accomplish in front of the camera. New England resoundingly defeated the Cleveland Browns on Sunday and sparked rumbling about being Super Bowl contenders.
