Patriots' Drake Maye Clowned for Egregious Turnover vs Jaguars
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye was clowned after an ugly turnover against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday.
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye has been struggling mightily this season, and his performance on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars only made matters worse. Maye is now tied for the league's lead with five turnovers, with an egregious fumble early in the first quarter being the latest example of his struggles. This fumble, possibly the worst of a series of errors, was the eighth time Maye had put the ball on the ground since the start of last postseason, bringing his total to 13 across seven games.
The fumble was part of a string of turnovers that have plagued Maye, with all but one forcing additional turnovers. Fellow broadcaster Savageboston expressed genuine confusion, saying, "Genuinely have no idea what I just watched by Drake Maye." Patriots beat reporter Doug Kyed added, "He now has five turnovers and just one touchdown."
The series of mistakes has not gone unnoticed, with one X user asking, "What did Drake Maye just do?" The Patriots face numerous challenges this season, but none are as crucial as addressing Maye's performance.
