Patriots | Drake Maye tosses three touchdowns Sun Oct 13, 07:55 PM
New England Patriots QB Drake Maye completed 20-of-33 passes for 243 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions in Week 6 against the Houston Texans in his first NFL start. He added five runs for a team-high 38 yards with one lost fumble.
| Footballguys view: As ESPN.com's Mike Reiss suggests, it was a promising debut. Maye's 40-yard TD pass to wide receiver Kayshon Boutte late in the second quarter perfectly capped off a well-run two-minute drill. The way Maye escaped the pocket to buy time and find tight end Hunter Henry on a 30-yard catch-and-run in the third quarter was also impressive. Those were balanced against an overthrown interception, a lost fumble on a strip sack, and another interception on a tipped ball at the line of scrimmage. Overall, the performance sparked a mix of hope and the reality of a rookie still learning on the job. The Patriots play the Jaguars in London next Sunday. |

New England Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (foot) did not practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 6 against the Houston Texans.
| Footballguys view: Antonio Gibson will be the starter and the Patriots will call up a running back from the practice squad to back him up. Consider Gibson a RB2/Flex play since he has been the only player creating explosive plays in this offense. |

Patriots | Rhamondre Stevenson not a long-term issue Fri Oct 11, 10:52 AM
New England Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (foot) doesn't have an injury that would be considered long term, according to head coach Jerod Mayo.
| Footballguys view: Stevenson and Antonio Gibson split snaps equally last week, but that might not happen this week with Stevenson nursing this injury. The team hinted that they could call up a practice squad running back, so we should prepare for Gibson to start and Stevenson to sit for Week 6. |

Link to story Patriots | Drake Maye To Start At QB In Week 6 Tue Oct 8, 03:42 PM
A QB change in New England: The Patriots are now planning to turn to rookie first-round pick Drake Maye to start Sunday's game against the Houston Texans, per source.
| Footballguys view: In addition to ESPN's Adam Schefter, NFL Network is reporting the same. Maye will replace Jacoby Brissett. As ESPN.com's Mike Reiss noted, head coach Jerod Mayo said last week that it was "unsustainable" to keep playing offense the way they have and expect to win. Up to this point, the Patriots' lack of consistent pass protection had been the primary reason for offensive struggles. That seemed to improve against the Dolphins, putting more of the spotlight on some of Jacoby Brissett's struggles. Maye will now join Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, and Bo Nix as the fourth rookie quarterback to start this season. |

Patriots | Rhamondre Stevenson runs for 89 yards, TD Sun Oct 6, 04:52 PM
New England Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson rushed 12 times for 89 yards and a touchdown in Week 5 against the Miami Dolphins, while adding four receptions for just three yards on his four targets. More importantly, he didn't put the ball on the ground.
| Footballguys view: Stevenson wasn't the starter, but he was still the primary back. He broke a long score early to tighten his grip on the lead role, but the team did have Antonio Gibson when they were driving for a potential game-winning score late. Still, Stevenson showed he's a flex play when the matchup dictates it. Next week vs. the Texans could be rough, although with four teams on bye, you'll probably play Stevenson if you have him. |
