Drake Maye believes this Boston athlete should be getting MVP consideration

Drake Maye is making a very compelling argument to win NFL MVP in just his second season in the pro ranks.

As expected, the 23-year-old Patriots has largely brushed aside all talk of his individual success, even if he leads the NFL in passer rating (112.9) and completion percentage (71.7) — while also throwing for 4,203 yards and 30 touchdowns against just eight interceptions.

Instead, Maye has opted to focus more on the success of the 2025 Patriots, with New England currently holding onto the No. 2 seed in the AFC with a 13-3 record.

And during his weekly interview with WEEI Afternoons on Monday, Maye opted to prop up another Boston athlete who is making a legitimate push for MVP this season: Celtics star Jaylen Brown.
