Jones is no stranger to big games. Just a year ago he dominated for the Crimson Tide and led them to a College Football Playoff national championship.

Jones only attempted three passes when the Patriots beat the Bills in Buffalo in Week 13. He'll almost certainly play a much larger role in the outcome this time around.
Kickoff for Patriots-Bills is scheduled for 8:15 p.m. ET.
