Throughout the draft process, Drake Maye was compared to some of the top quarterback’s in the league. One of those included Los Angeles Chargers gunslinger Justin Herbert.
Six starts into Maye’s career, nobody could compare the two better than tight end Hunter Henry, who’s last season in Los Angeles coincided with Herbert’s rookie season. So far, Henry agrees with the pre-draft player comps.
“There’s a lot of similarities in a lot of ways,” Henry said on Wednesday. “They’re different but they’re similar in a way too. I mean Justin’s a special player but Drake’s a very special player too.
