Patriots' Drake Maye replaces Jacoby Brissett amid blowout vs. Jets

With the game against the New York Jets seemingly out of reach, the New England Patriots decided to finally let rookie quarterback Drake Maye have his first taste of NFL regular season action. Maye subbed in for the ineffective Jacoby Brissett with under five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter.

Although Maye was not able to lead the Jets to a comeback win against Aaron Rodgers and the Jets, he surely will not be forgetting the experience he just had. The former North Carolina Tar Heels star quarterback finished the Patriots game with only 22 passing yards on 4-of-8 completions.
