Patriots quarterback Drake Maye was buzzing for a good cause on Tuesday, but his injured throwing shoulder, which has plagued him in the 2025 NFL playoffs, shouldn’t be an issue for the upcoming season.
“Shoulder feels good, feels good,” Maye said, via the Boston Globe . “Just getting some time off, being able to get back to throwing and lifting.”
Maye injured his right throwing shoulder in the AFC Championship game against the Denver Broncos, but was able to finish the Patriots’ victory. It still seemed to affect him in the Super Bowl LX loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Maye told reporters after a game in which he had three turnovers and six sacks that he needed to inject himself beforehand.
Not expected to need surgery, Maye said Tuesday he is on the mend.
