Drake Maye’s NFL preseason debut lasted just one series on Thursday night against the Panthers.
Maye was pulled after seven snaps, the majority of which were run plays. He finished 2-for-3 with 19 yards.
Coach Jerod Mayo told reporters that playing both Maye and Brissett for one series apiece was the plan going into the game. He later said that he plans to play Maye more this Thursday against the Eagles.
“This honestly is a huge week for everyone to practice against the Eagles and then we’ll kind of see how the reps break down in the game,” Mayo said.
