The Drake Maye era is upon us. On Sunday, the third overall selection in the 2024 NFL Draft will make his much-anticipated debut as New England Patriots starting quarterback.
With the team at 1-4 and their season beginning to slip from its grasp, Maye will lead the troops into battle over previous starter Jacoby Brissett. Standing in his, and the Patriots’ way, is a Houston Texans squad that won four of its first five games this year.
In order for New England to beat the Texans and end its league-worst four-game losing streak, Maye is not the only player who will need to come up in a big way.
