The Patriots are continuing to plead patience on when they’ll play Drake Maye, from the head coach down to the rookie’s positional coach.
Patriots quarterbacks coach TC McCartney explained that Maye has the opportunity to benefit from watching Jacoby Brissett while on the bench, even if the starting quarterback is getting beaten up.
“It’s definitely valuable – just getting in there, getting reps. I don’t want to undervalue how important those reps are, but there’s a lot of other development that goes on besides the actual reps,” McCartney told reporters on Friday (via MassLive’s Mark Daniels).
