Patriots' Drake Maye taking 30% of first-team reps in practice; here's why that's a good idea
Jacoby Brissett is getting fewer first-team reps than most other starters
By Jared Dubin • 3 min readThe New England Patriots are using an unusual arrangement for their quarterback reps in practice. According to head coach Jerod Mayo, starter Jacoby Brissett is taking the majority of first-team reps, as would be expected. But the split of those reps with backup Drake Maye, who was the No. 3 overall pick in this year's NFL Draft, is much different than what we normally see teams use.
"It's not a secret, we have a quarterback in the wings that needs to continue to develop. Normally, the starter gets, let's say, 95% of the reps. This is a little bit different," Mayo said, via ESPN. "I guess the struggle is, 'How do you get your starting quarterback prepared for the game and also continue to develop the guy in the background, which is Drake?' And so it is like a 70-30 split."
We knew from before the season began that this -- or something like this -- was the team's plan for Maye. De facto Patriots general manager Eliot Wolf said as much a few days before New England's opener.
"We do have confidence in Drake," Wolf said, via The Boston Herald. "It's not like we're just going to let him collect dust for the year. He's going to be out there in practice taking reps, he's going to take some reps with the (starters), he's going to take some reps on the scout team and continue to progress and develop in that regard."
