Patriots coach Jerod Mayo had high praise for his team’s “next man up” mentality after beating the Jets, 25-22, at Gillette Stadium on Sunday.
That mind-set was on display from Jacoby Brissett, who stepped in after Drake Maye left the game with a concussion in the second quarter.
“You lose Drake [Maye] there early in the game, and I thought Jacoby was ready to go,” Mayo said after the game. “Was it perfect? No. But at the same time, I thought the operation was good. I thought he made some good throws, and we’ve just got to continue building on that.
