Since taking over the starting role from Jacoby Brissett just a handful of weeks ago, New England Patriots rookie quarterback Drake Maye has continually showed off incredible flashes of talent that made him one of the top prospects of the 2024 NFL Draft.

Moments after the Patriots took a 34-15 blowout on the chin Sunday at Miami, Drake Maye said the only direction his team can go is up. But as the Pats fight to climb back, Maye doesn’t want them to forget what it feels like at the bottom.

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye did not mince words about the team’s 34-15 loss to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. It was a day where the team struggled on both sides of the ball. The rookie was one of the better performers on the afternoon, as he went 22-of-37 passing for 222 yards, a touchdown and an interception.
