Patriots QB Drake Maye (head) questionable to return

New England Patriots rookie quarterback Drake Maye was taken back to the locker room during the second quarter of a meeting with the visiting New York Jets on Sunday to be evaluated for a head injury.

Maye, who is questionable to return, sustained the apparent injury on an 18-yard scramble in the final minute of the first quarter. Jets linebacker Jamien Sherwood made helmet-to-helmet contact with Maye on a hit from behind as the quarterback slid.

Maye finished the drive, but Jacoby Brissett took over under center for New England on its next possession.

Prior to exiting, Maye completed 3 of 6 passes for 23 yards. He also rushed for 46 yards and a touchdown on three carries.

The 22-year-old Maye, selected third overall by the Patriots in this year’s draft, was making his third career start on Sunday.
