Drake Maye plays one drive in NFL preseason debut

Posted Aug 9, 2024
UNC football fans and New England Patriots fans came together on Thursday night, as they tuned in to watch the highly-anticipated NFL debut of star quarterback Drake Maye. Maye’s debut was very short-lived, as he played the Patriots’ second drive Thursday and entered 3:56 into the opening quarter. Maye completed his first pass for a 13-yard first down.
