Updating a previous report, New England Patriots QB Drake Maye only played one series in the preseason opener, in part, because the team didn’t want him in there with backup offensive linemen, according to head coach Jerod Mayo. ‘That’s always a consideration,’ Mayo said when asked if New England’s O-line depth chart played a part in the decision. ‘If he’s in there, you want him in there with the starting offensive line. We gotta protect that guy. Not saying that we don’t have to protect the other guys, but that absolutely did go into it.’
