Sophie Scott is leaning into a glamorous run on the Amalfi Coast, and her latest photos made that impossible to miss.
The former girlfriend of Mac Jones posted a fresh set of Instagram shots from Positano, where she looked relaxed and polished during a vacation stretch at Le Sirenuse hotel. In one image, Scott wore a blue bikini with sunglasses and a beige sun hat while spending time by the pool. Other photos showed her in a yellow dress at dinner, with pasta and wine on the table.
Scott currently lists Nashville as her base, but the posts put her firmly in European getaway mode. The vibe is carefree and sun-soaked, a sharp contrast to the private nature of her breakup with Jones.
Jones and Scott dated back to their University of Alabama days in 2019 and later moved together to Boston after the Patriots drafted him. They separated earlier this year without a public explanation. The two were together through Jones’ time in New England and his 2024 stint with the Jacksonville Jaguars, and they also attended events such as the ESPYs together before the relationship ended.
While Scott has been sharing vacation photos, Jones’ football future is drawing attention of its own. After joining the San Francisco 49ers ahead of the 2025 season, he revived his career by going 5-3 while filling in for Brock Purdy. That run turned heads around the league, and now Jones could be on the move again.
According to a report from Tom Pelissero, Jones is among the quarterbacks on the New York Giants’ radar. The list also includes JJ McCarthy, Spencer Rattler, Justin Fields, Joe Milton, and Jimmy Garoppolo.
“Several quarterbacks have garnered trade interest around the league in recent months, including the 49ers’ Mac Jones, the Vikings’ J.J. McCarthy, and the Saints’ Spencer Rattler,” Pelissero wrote.
“Other current backups, such as the Chiefs’ Justin Fields or even Dallas’s Joe Milton (who could be signed off the practice squad), also could be options depending on how the Giants want the offense to evolve without Dart. And while free-agent options are limited, Jimmy Garoppolo is available if he decides he wants to play again.”
Jones is in the final year of a two-year deal with San Francisco and will be a free agent after the season. The Giants’ interest adds another wrinkle to his professional outlook, even as Scott’s posts keep the personal side of the story in view.

Vikings Are Sending A Clear Message On J.J. McCarthy
The Giants are making another quarterback move in the aftermath of Jaxson Dart being ruled out for the rest of the regular season, with New York reportedly sending a 2027 fifth-round pick to Minnesota for J.J. McCarthy. It is a depth-minded trade on the surface, but it also says plenty about how the Giants view the position behind starter Jameis Winston as they try to keep the season afloat.
McCarthy arrives with pedigree as a 2024 first-round pick, even if his first two NFL seasons have been shaped by injury and uneven play. He is also under contract through 2027, with a fifth-year option waiting in 2028, which gives the Giants a longer runway if they decide this is more than a short-term insurance play. [Read more 🡒]
Giants Reached 2-1 But This Win Raised A Bigger Concern
The Giants did enough to leave Tennessee with a 12-7 win and a 2-1 record, but the box score offered a familiar reminder that tidy victories can still carry messy edges. Jevon Hollands critical interception helped steady the defense, Dominic Zvada handled the kicking duties, and there were useful contributions from Najee Harris, Cam Skattebo and Arvell Reese as New York found a way to get out with a road result.
Still, the bigger concern sat in the details. The Giants were flagged 10 times for 88 yards, and those penalties kept interrupting drives and limiting chances to score more comfortably. For a team trying to build momentum early in the season, the win counts, but the discipline issue is the kind of problem that can linger if it is not cleaned up quickly. [Read more 🡒]
Giants Win Sparked An Ugly Reaction Titans Fans Cant Defend
The Giants win over Tennessee did more than add another result to the standings. In the aftermath, the focus shifted away from the field and toward the kind of online behavior that too often follows a rough loss, with Cam Wards sister, Chantel Ward, stepping in to address what the family had been dealing with from angry fans.
Her message drew a line between fair criticism of the game and the personal harassment and threats aimed at family members, making clear that the fallout from a defeat can spill far beyond the locker room. For Giants fans, it was a reminder that every opponents setback can bring an ugly edge into the conversation, and this one left the Ward family trying to absorb more than just a football loss.
