Curran: Maye's lack of snaps vs. Panthers was ‘huge missed opportunity' originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston
New England Patriots fans hoping to see Drake Maye play a couple drives in Thursday night's preseason opener versus the Carolina Panthers at Gillette Stadium ended up being disappointed.
After veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett started the game, Maye got his first chance to play in front of Patriots fans by taking over the offense for the team's second drive in the first quarter.
He connected with running back Antonio Gibson for a 12-yard pickup and a first down on a screen pass on his third snap.
