Mac Jones wants to cut down on his ice cream consumption.

The young quarterback for the New England Patriots had a solid rookie campaign and even managed to make the playoffs his first year in the league. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

“I like ice cream too much, like a lot of people. [I want to] just limit it and then try and eat healthy, like we do at the Patriots; every day [they] give us great food,” Jones recently said during an interview for the team’s website, according to Sports Illustrated.

This is a great idea from Jones. You don’t want to be eating too much junk food in general, and you damn sure don’t want to do it as a quarterback in the NFL.

If you want to be an elite athlete, you have to control your diet. You just have to. It’s the nature of the beast.

Hell, I used to be fat and had a terrible diet. I can tell you from firsthand experience how much better it is to be in better shape.

While we all enjoy ice cream, it’s simply not worth the extra pounds. That’s a fact.

So, Jones is making a great decision, and I have no doubt it’ll help him get in even better shape.
