Drake Maye sharp Thursday, runs for TD, leads two Patriots scoring drives

Posted Aug 16, 2024
When Drake Maye scored his first professional touchdown on a four-yard run in Thursday night’s NFL preseason game, he casually tossed the football in the air just after entering the end zone and was quickly mobbed by Patriots teammates. No drama. No wild celebration by the rookie from North Carolina. "I probably should have thought of one," Maye said. (Tar Heel Tribune)
