Patriots' Quarterback Battle: Drake Maye vs. Jacoby Brissett and the Team's Progress-Focused Approach in NFL Offseason

The New England Patriots, fresh off a disappointing 4-13 season, are focusing on progress as they prepare for the upcoming NFL season. One of the biggest decisions facing the team is who will start at quarterback between rookie Drake Maye and veteran Jacoby Brissett. While Maye has been making strides in his development, he is currently not taking first-team reps during Organized Team Activities (OTAs). Eliot Wolf, the Patriots' executive vice president of player personnel, has expressed optimism about Maye's progress but also praised Brissett for his throwing ability. Wolf stated that they will have important conversations about when Maye is ready to start and that all four quarterbacks on the roster are working hard.

The Patriots made some significant moves in free agency, re-signing Mike Onwenu and Hunter Henry while extending Christian Barmore's contract. They also retained players like Kendrick Bourne, Anfernee Jennings, and Josh Uche. Wolf defended the team's spending in free agency by pointing out that they signed the best offensive tackle and tight end available, who just happened to already be on their roster.

Maye was selected third overall in the 2024 NFL Draft and is considered a raw talent with high potential. He will have to outwork Brissett if he hopes to earn the starting job. The Patriots are taking a collaborative approach when it comes to making decisions about their roster, and all big decisions will be made in consultation with Mayo and Wolf.

The Patriots' progress-focused approach extends beyond the football field as they look to rebuild after a disappointing season. They have plenty of salary cap space remaining, leading the league in both regular cap space ($52.2 million) and effective cap space ($44.6 million).
