Dragon Return: Maye Back Under Center, Patriots’ QB Clears…
New England Patriots rookie quarterback Drake Maye cleared concussion protocol and is in line to start Sunday’s game against the host Tennessee Titans.
Maye was a limited participant in practice for the third straight day on Friday. He does not carry an injury designation into the game with the Titans (1-6).
Maye, 22, was placed in the protocol last Sunday after taking a helmet-to-helmet hit in New England’s 25-22 win over the New York Jets. The Patriots (2-6) snapped a six-game losing skid with the victory.
He has completed 63.1 percent of his passes for 564 yards, five touchdowns and two interceptions in four games (three starts) this season. He was selected by New England with the third overall pick of the 2024 NFL Draft out of North Carolina.
