Drake Maye has struggled out of the gate as the QB28 in fantasy. Among 28 qualifying passers, he is 17th in yards per attempt, 21st in passing success rate, has the 12th-lowest aDOT, the second-highest turnover-worthy play rate, and the tenth-lowest EPA per dropback. It has been rough. His rushing hasn't been enough to save his fantasy days, averaging 5.5 rushing attempts and 32 yards on the ground. This week's matchup against the Jags should be seen at worst as a neutral one with the upside to be quite favorable. Jacksonville's talented defense has also been meh through two games. The Jaguars have allowed the 14th-highest passing success rate, the highest explosive pass rate, and they rank 14th-best in EPA per dropback allowed. I'm not expecting a HUGE bounce-back game from Maye, but I also won't be shocked if he logs his first QB1 outing of the season in Week 3.

Drake Maye tosses fourth INT of the season in winning effort

Patriots QB Drake Maye completed 14-of-22 pass attempts for 208 yards and one interception in the Patriots' 20-3 win over the Steelers. He added 17 rushing yards on four carries.

Fantasy Impact

Maye completed passes to nine different pass catchers in the Patriots' first win of the season. The interceptions continue to plague the young quarterback, as he now has four on the season. Maye and the Patriots will take on the Jaguars in Jacksonville in Week 3.
