Romeo Doubs Gives Glowing Review of Drake Maye Early in Patriots Camp
Patriots WR Romeo Doubs is quietly making his mark in New England. See what he said about his new QB Drake Maye.
The New England Patriots made a significant offseason trade, acquiring All-Pro wide receiver A.J. Brown from the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for two draft picks. Stefon Diggs, who was the team's leading receiver last season with 1,013 receiving yards, is now a free agent, prompting the need for the Patriots to provide Drake Maye a formidable wide receiver to elevate their performance.
One player who has impressed so far is Romeo Doubs. Last year, Doubs had a standout season with the Green Bay Packers, leading the team in yards (724), receptions (55), targets (85), and touchdowns (6). Recently, Doubs shared his positive experience in New England, expressing his love for the team, the intensity of the camp practices, and his growing chemistry with Maye.
Doubs highlighted the importance of trust in their relationship, praising Maye as a leader and a poised individual. Maye, relatively new to his career, has already demonstrated skills akin to some of the best quarterbacks in the NFL. In the 2023 season, he completed 72% of his passes for 4,394 yards, 31 touchdowns, eight interceptions, and added 450 rushing yards and four rushing touchdowns.
His performance was pivotal in the Patriots' successful season, helping them reach the playoffs for the first time since 2021, their first 14-win season since 2016, and their first Super Bowl appearance since the Tom Brady era. With Brown and Doubs now part of the team, Maye has a more potent group of pass-catchers, positioning the Patriots for a successful 2026 season.
