Curran: Patriots' handling of Maye all ties back to Mac Jones originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston

Drake Maye saw the least action of any first-round rookie quarterback in Week 1 of the preseason. And Mac Jones is indirectly to blame.

Maye played just one series in the New England Patriots' 17-3 win over the Carolina Panthers last Thursday, in part because the team is determined to be deliberate in his development, and in part because the team's lack of depth on the offensive line could expose him to potential injury.
