#Patriots rookie QB Drake Maye has been staying after practice to help pass catchers practice their routes — Maye believes it is his job to help the young skill players prepare for game day.
"After practice, guys stay after for routes. I'm just kind of the guy, hey, whatever you need, I'm here to throw them. K.J. (Osborn) came up to me and ran extra curl routes, Pop (Douglas) is catching them over the shoulder. Little things like that. JP [Ja'Lynn Polk] and Bake [Javon Baker], young receivers.
I think it's my job coming in with them in the rookie class to get them prepared. Here's what Jacoby is thinking, here's what he sees, if they do this, this is what we want. It's my job to take the young skill players and get them prepared so when their number is called, they're ready.”
Really detailed and well written article by Evan Lazar — it sounds like Drake Maye will be receiving a lot of attention and picking up a lot of knowledge week-to-week just like the staff said he would.
