FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- New England Patriots rookie quarterback Drake Maye has started six NFL games and the results have been what many inside the organization have hoped they would be. Maybe even better.
The Patriots (3-8), who prepare for a road game against the Miami Dolphins (4-6) on Sunday, are closer to the No. 1 overall draft pick than a playoff berth but Maye has sparked hope for a brighter future.
Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay, for one, took note of Maye's ascension after his team defeated the Patriots, 28-22, on Sunday.
