Drake Maye Takes Over as Patriots’ Starting QB

By eDraft Fantasy Football on Wednesday, October 9th 2024

Drake Maye Starting Debut

Patriots rookie QB Drake Maye is set to start in Week 6 against the Texans. After struggling with Jacoby Brissett, the Patriots are looking for a spark in their offense. Maye’s addition could potentially elevate the roles of skill players like Hunter Henry and Kendrick Bourne, as he brings a different approach to the Patriots’ game plan.

Fantasy Impact: Maye’s Potential to Boost Patriots Playmakers

With Maye at the helm, Henry could see increased involvement, particularly as a safety valve for the rookie. Bourne may also benefit from this change if Maye targets him on intermediate routes. Rhamondre Stevenson should continue to receive a steady workload, though the Patriots might experiment with more passing plays to evaluate Maye’s capabilities.

Long-Term Outlook with Maye as QB1

If Maye performs well, he may retain the starting role for the foreseeable future. This could boost the fantasy stock of players like Stevenson and Bourne, who could see more consistent targets. Fantasy managers should watch Maye’s performance closely as the Patriots adjust to their new starting quarterback.
