Drake Maye hit the sideline on Sunday, pulled from the New England Patriots’ game against the Green Bay Packers after an absolutely brutal outing that saw him throw three interceptions. Head coach Mike Vrabel decided he’d seen enough, benching his third-year quarterback with the Patriots trailing a massive 45-21 in the fourth quarter. Talk about a tough scene.
Maye’s Day: Three Picks and a Bench
Maye finished his day 21-of-38 for 299 yards and three touchdowns, which sounds okay until you get to those three back-breaking interceptions. The worst part? One of those picks came on the very opening drive, practically handing the Packers a lead they never, ever gave up. Backup Tommy DeVito came in to finish out the final six-plus minutes, but the damage was already done. It was a tough watch, man.
Patriots’ Season Hits a Wall, While Our Hawks Keep Flying
