Patriots QB Drake Maye's Injury Revealed Before Super Bowl
29 Jan
Summary
- Drake Maye is reportedly nursing a right shoulder injury.
- The injury was disclosed in the team's January 28 injury report.
- Coach Mike Vrabel downplayed the severity, citing normal wear.
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye is currently managing a right shoulder injury as the team prepares for Super Bowl 60. The injury became public knowledge on January 28 when Maye appeared on the team's injury report as a limited participant.
Head coach Mike Vrabel addressed the situation, stating that Maye, like all players at this stage of the season, is not at full health. Vrabel suggested that reports of the injury's severity, particularly on social media, might be exaggerated and confirmed no new injury occurred during the AFC championship game.
While Maye's shoulder issue has been ongoing prior to the AFC championship, its limited practice status indicates a potential worsening or a strategic rest period. The Patriots' depth at quarterback includes veteran Joshua Dobbs, who would assume starting duties if Maye is unable to play. DeVante DeVito is also on the roster as the third-string quarterback.
