This training camp, everyone’s eyes are on Drake Maye, and they all want to learn as much as they can about him.
Thus, questions on the rookie quarterback’s early impressions have been posed to every member on the club. Jabrill Peppers, a talented safety for the Patriots, is among them.
After Friday’s training camp practice, Peppers addressed the media and was questioned regarding Maye. But he chose a somewhat unconventional response in place of the standard one.
And for Maye, it was quite the complement.
Peppers remarked, “I mean, I feel like you guys know everything.” “But he has excellent musical taste. That wasn’t what I expected from him.”
All that’s left to do is determine Maye’s particular musical preferences.
In addition to this lighthearted remark, Peppers shared his assessment of what he had observed from Maye.
“He is a rookie quarterback playing against a team that has been together for some time. We complement each other pretty nicely,” Peppers continued. “We are skilled at disguising appearances and creating multiple identities. He’s undoubtedly growing accustomed to it. It’s just a matter of seeing it, believing it, reading it out, and consistently executing the right throws on the field. He possesses all the necessary skills.
Maye shown significant progress in a short period of time on Friday, perhaps his best session of the training camp. Although his early troubles have received a lot of attention from the public, it is important to remember that this is typical of any rookie.
What has been Maye’s attitude at camp, then?
Simply take what you can from it. Simply avoid making the same error repeatedly, Maye stated on Friday. Additionally, on Monday—the first day we wear pads—you come out here and we play third-and-long. It’s hard to be third and long in the NFL. When facing a third-and-long, our defense plays well and puts pressure on the opposition. Simultaneously, while rewatching the film, pay attention to the details. This job is exactly that. You have to execute the little things correctly as a quarterback.
Additionally, Jacoby Brissett took great delight in Maye’s behavior.
“Man, keep moving forward. Training camp is lengthy, according to Brissett. “.. Putting one foot in front of the other and returning to competition is the finest thing he’s doing. The plays will develop on their own. The key is to consistently perform the small actions that will allow you to have the opportunity to make the right play.
However, Maye hasn’t yet demonstrated his full potential. And on Friday, he made sure to tell everyone that.
Maye remarked, “I feel like I throw the football well down the field.” “I believe it’s coming, but I still feel like I haven’t fully let it out yet. I am excited about it.
