Former UNC football QB Drake Maye back in Chapel Hill

Posted Sep 22, 2024
Although UNC Football fell in an upset to James Madison, the Tar Heels had a special visitor on the sidelines. That special visitor was Drake Maye, North Carolina’s 2022 ACC Rookie and Player of the Year, who the New England Patriots chose third overall in this year’s NFL Draft. Maye made his regular-season debut recently against the New York Jets. (Tar Heels Wire)
