The Patriots have one of the top young QBs in the game in Drake Maye.
But the 23-year-old signal-caller has made it a habit of striking fear in the hearts of Patriots fans when it comes to his knack for exposing himself to injury while scrambling for extra yardage.
After running into a few bone-crunching hits during his rookie year, Maye had another injury scare on Sunday against the Titans — briefly spending time in the blue medical tent after his helmet hit the turf hard while scrambling for six yards.
Even though Maye only missed a few plays while undergoing a concussion test, it further reinforced the need for the young QB to protect himself — or risk New England’s season completely imploding if he has to spend a significant amount of time on the shelf.
