Drake Maye Among College Football's Top Redshirt Freshmen To Watch

Drake Maye is locked in one of college football's most interesting QB battles as he and Jacolby Criswell push to replace Sam Howell. Maye, a 5-star QB in the Top247, is the highest-ranked quarterback ever to sign with UNC. Given the system and talent the Tar Heels claim at receiver, Maye could be a national breakout star if he wins the starting job. (247 Sports)
