Patriots' Drake Maye Generating Early Buzz for Major Award

Related Topics: New England Patriots, Drake Maye

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye had a solid rookie campaign in 2024, seeming to establish himself as the Patriots' clear answer under center for the future.

Maye made 13 appearances and 12 starts, throwing for 2,276 yards, 15 touchdowns and 10 interceptions while completing 66.6 percent of his throws. In addition, he rushed for 421 yards and a couple of scores, displaying clear dual-threat capabilities.

What's very notable is that the former No. 3 overall pick did all of that in spite of having very limited talent around him. The Patriots' offensive line and receiving corps were probably the two worst units in their respective categories last season, and their rushing attack wasn't great, either.
