Drake Maye Injured, Patriots Lose to Jets

New England Patriots rookie quarterback Drake Maye was ruled out for the remainder of the game against the New York Jets after suffering a concussion from a helmet-to-helmet hit by Jets linebacker Jamien Sherwood. Maye, who was making his third NFL start, had been performing well with 46 rushing yards and a touchdown before the injury. The hit occurred as Maye scrambled for a gain and attempted to slide, but no penalty was called on the play. He was initially evaluated in the blue medical tent before being taken to the locker room, after which head coach Jerod Mayo confirmed he would not return. Veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett replaced Maye, as the Patriots were trailing 13-7 at halftime. The game, which saw early struggles from the Jets due to operational issues, continued with Brissett at the helm for New England.
