Patriots Prepare Jacoby Brissett as Starter Against Titans Amid Maye's Concussion Protocol
With rookie QB Drake Maye still recovering, veteran Jacoby Brissett is set to lead New England's offense this Sunday.
- Drake Maye remains in the NFL's concussion protocol, limiting his practice participation to under 30 minutes, indicating he is in Phase 3 of the recovery process.
- Jacoby Brissett, who started the season for the Patriots, is expected to start against the Titans, having led a comeback win over the Jets last week.
- Coach Jerod Mayo expressed confidence in Brissett's readiness and professionalism, highlighting his experience as a stabilizing factor for the team.
- Maye's injury occurred after a helmet-to-helmet hit during a scramble against the Jets, after which he continued to play briefly before being evaluated.
- If Maye is not cleared by Sunday, rookie Joe Milton will serve as Brissett's backup, as the team continues to manage quarterback depth.
