"Not only was it noteworthy because of how perfectly executed it was, but it also marked the first 300+ passing yard game Maye has recorded in his career, a feat Patriots fans have longed for all season. Making it even better is that it wasn't the only record Maye broke, further solidifying his role as the team's franchise quarterbackof the future."
".@Patriots QB @DrakeMaye2 surpassed 300 passing yards in a game for the first time in his career on a 37-yard touchdown pass to WR Kyle Williams.It is the first time a Patriot has thrown for 300 yards since QB Mac Jones on Sept. 10, 2023, vs. Philadelphia.#NEPats pic.twitter.com/mm2PhhE1F9- Patriots Communications (@PatriotsComms) December 22, 2025"
"Since Tom Brady left New England in 2020, the Patriots have struggled to find the right quarterback to lead their offense. That doesn't appear to be the case anymore now that Maye is under center, which makes breaking the curse of quarterbacks not throwing for 300+ yards since Mac Jones in 2023 even better for fans to celebrate."
Maye overcame early turnovers to rally the offense in the second half and threw a standout touchdown to Kyle Williams. He recorded his first 300+ passing-yard game, ending a Patriots drought dating to Mac Jones in 2023. The 37-yard touchdown was highlighted as one of the best of his young career. Multiple records were broken in the performance, strengthening Maye's case as the team's franchise quarterback. The Patriots' longstanding search for a stable post-Brady quarterback appears to be shifting with Maye under center.
