The New England Patriots are doing their due diligence as they search for their next franchise quarterback.
With the third overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, the Patriots have primarily been linked to top QB prospects Drake Maye, Jayden Daniels, and J.J. McCarthy. ESPN's Adam Schefter recently reported that with the Washington Commanders likely to take Daniels No. 2, New England is likely to choose between Maye or McCarthy. But what if they aren't sold on either option?
To cover all their bases, the Patriots are reportedly meeting with Washington QB Michael Penix, who's widely considered one of the second-tier QB options in this year's draft.
