While Jacoby Brissett takes a beating for the Patriots, his coach gave a lukewarm answer on his job status

When Jacoby Brissett was announced as the Patriots’ starting quarterback last month, coach Jerod Mayo said the organization was 100 percent behind him.

With a subpar offensive line and low expectations for the season overall, the plan was for the veteran Brissett to start the games, run the offense, and take the hits while rookie Drake Maye watches and learns.

Three games into the season, Maye has made an appearance and Mayo said he’s not so sure about Brissett’s status as the starter. He was asked directly if he would consider making a quarterback change.
