Ja’Lynn Polk did himself no favors on Sunday.
The New England Patriots rookie wide receiver is doing himself no favors mere days after he made claims that he has the “best hands in the league” when speaking with media members this week.
To prove that notion, he thought he would have a good day in London as the team faced off against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
He did the opposite as Ja’Lynn Polk proceeded to drop the first pass thrown to him in Sunday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars and then many more.

Fans couldn’t wait to roast him online:
Not a good look for Ja’Lynn Polk, especially as quarterback Drake Maye starts to emerge as the future of the team.
If he wants to be part of that future, he needs to play better.
Patriots Head Coach Jared Mayo Spoke On Ja’Lynn Polk
Addressing Polk’s performance while speaking to reporters, head coach Jared Mayo said flatly the rookie needs to “get over this mental hump” and “eliminate the dropped passes.”
Polk did not agree, as he stated his hands were a strength of his.
After being called out by head coach Jerod Mayo for his issues with drops, New England Patriots wide receiver Ja’Lynn Polk said, “I believe I have the best hands in the league. So, I feel like my drops, that’s not an issue at all,” Polk said. “… I’ve got more confidence in myself than anybody has in me. I just have the mindset of wanting to be the best. So, keep chasing greatness and being the best that I can be.”
He is not helping himself with his performance in London against the Jaguars.
