Vrabel: Drake Maye ‘large part of the reason’ why he joined Patriots

The Patriots still have a long way to go when it comes to re-establishing themselves as contenders in the AFC.

But new Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel believes that New England’s ascension as a growing power in the league remains on track with Drake Maye in place at quarterback.

During an appearance on OutKick.com’s “Don’t @ Me with Dan Dakich,” Vrabel stressed that Maye’s potential made New England an appealing destination this offseason, beyond Vrabel’s obvious ties to the franchise as a former player.

“I see a young, athletic, talented, full-of-potential player,” Vrabel said.
