Drake Maye enters the 2025 season as New England's starting QB, free of injuries and buoyed by a stable contract. His 2024 campaign was marked by 2,276 passing yards and 15 TDs over 338 attempts, highlighting mid-tier QB2 performance. Despite facing a 36.98% pressure rate (QB2), Maye's scrambles per game rank second among QBs at 3.46. With Mike Vrabel as the new head coach, a shift towards a more QB-friendly scheme could enhance his 2.92 CPOE (QB14). He has new weapons Stefon Diggs and rookies TreyVeon Henderson + Will Campbell, but the overall offensive line's improvement is crucial. Maye's 2025 projections include 22.88 passing TDs (QB20) and 549.35 rushing yards (QB7), suggesting potential for growth if schematic changes unlock his deep-ball prowess.
