Patriots Officially Make Quarterback Change, Jerod Mayo Names Drake Maye Starter New England Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo has officially named rookie Drake Maye as the starting quarterback for the team.
OCTOBER 9, 2024 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM
QB switch confirmed Coach Jerod Mayo confirmed Wednesday that Maye will start Sunday's game against the Texans, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
Impact While confirming the team's switch from veteran QB Jacoby Brissett to the rookie first-rounder, Mayo noted "we are trying to win every game. At the time, we thought that Jacoby would give us the best chance...Going forward, Drake gives us the best chance to win now." Maye thus assumes the starting role for the 1-4 Patriots, who head into Week 6 action averaging just 12.4 points per game. While the No. 3 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft will be working behind an offensive line with question marks, and throwing to a wide receiver corps that ranks last in the NFL in catches (39) and receiving yards (342), per Mike Reiss of ESPN, Maye does possess the sort of arm talent and mobility that could help spark New England's stagnant offense, while at the same time providing a degree of fantasy utility in deeper formats.

Impact Mayo noted that the team's decision to switch starting quarterbacks from Jacoby Brissett to the rookie first-round pick was based on the belief that Maye gives the Patriots the best chance to win. Maye thus assumes the starting role for the 1-4 Patriots, who head into Week 6 action averaging just 12.4 points per game, ahead of only the Dolphins for the worst mark in the NFL.

His running ability in particularly could give him a degree of fantasy utility in deeper formats, especially those with lineups featuring two quarterbacks or a QB flex spot.

Drake Maye to Make First NFL Start in Patriots' Week 6 Clash vs. Texans Maye was the third pick in the 2024 NFL draft.
OCTOBER 8, 2024 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM
Taking over as starter The Patriots are planning to have Maye start Sunday's game against the Texans, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact While New England has yet to officially confirm that Maye will replace Jacoby Brissett as the team's starting quarterback, expect head coach Jerod Mayo to announce the change when he meets with the media ahead of the team's first Week 6 practice Wednesday. The decision to turn to Maye -- the No. 3 overall pick in April's draft -- isn't a major surprise, as the Patriots had struggled to a 1-4 start while Brissett directed an offense that averaged 250.8 yards and 12.4 points per game over the first five weeks, both of which are the second-worst marks in the NFL.

Listed at 6-foot-4 and 225 pounds, Maye boasts an ideal frame for a quarterback and is blessed with a strong arm and good mobility, but his fantasy upside could be limited in 2024 due to the Patriots' shaky offensive line and dearth of high-quality pass-catching threats.
