Drake Maye injury update: NFL Network provides latest after helmet-to-helmet hit vs. Chargers

The New England Patriots are in the middle of a Saturday afternoon battle with the Los Angeles Chargers in Foxborough, but they’re a man down, as quarterback Drake Maye is dealing with an injury.

Earlier in the first quarter, the rookie exited the contest after a hard hit by Chargers cornerback Cam Hart. He was taken to the locker room and labeled questionable to return with a head injury. Afterwards, NFL Network’s Steve Wyche provided an update on his status.

“You’re going to see Jacoby Brissett go out with the offense this time, as Drake Maye is now questionable with a head injury,” Wyche reported. “He was taken back to the locker room with four medical personnel escorting him without his helmet.”

Alas, Maye left the game early in the first quarter. He stayed down for a few seconds after the hit before getting to his feet and eventually heading to the medical tent. Eventually, the former North Carolina star went to the locker room after being checked in the medical tent. He was 1-for-1 passing for 1 yard before exiting the game.
