Drake Maye departs Lions game with ankle injury
The Patriots starting quarterback was injured in Week 10.
Quarterback Drake Maye exited the Lions game for the New England Patriots due to an ankle injury on their opening drive. The 24-year-old, who had started all nine of the team's games this season, displayed his abilities early with a 3-for-4 performance for 48 yards. However, after taking a sack from Aidan Hutchinson on third down, Maye departed to the medical tent following the game's commencement.
The Patriots informed the crowd that Maye was questionable to return to the match with the ankle injury, leading Tommy DeVito to step in for the subsequent drive, which culminated in a punt.
