Longtime quarterback delivers massive vote of confidence to Patriots rookie
"Mike Vrabel and his new staff made their priorities clear during the offseason regarding how they wanted to build the Patriots' roster. From leaning defensive heavy in free agency to focusing on the offense and special teams in the draft, they were hitting every corner of the team to ensure they were in a better spot in 2025, which couldn't have come at a better time for Drake Maye."
"Not only did the second-year quarterback get help on the offensive line, but his receiving corps massively improved from his rookie season. Stefon Diggs was signed in free agency, while Kyle Williams was a third-round pick in this year's draft, adding even more speed and explosive performance to the offense. Before the season even began, we knew what kind of player Diggs was, and he's lived up to that and then some so far."
"He's been more utilized over the past month and has shown glimpses of just how good he can and will be for the Patriots. He's been so impressive that even former quarterback Brian Hoyer recently compared him to a superstar pass catcher that will surely excite fans. Brian Hoyer just gave the best new comp of Kyle Williams that the Patriots will love to hear After an incredible touchdown catch against the Ravens on Sunday Night Football last week,"
Mike Vrabel and his new staff prioritized roster balance by targeting defense in free agency and offense and special teams in the draft. The offseason moves upgraded protection and playmakers around second-year quarterback Drake Maye. Stefon Diggs arrived via free agency and rookie Kyle Williams was added in the third round to inject speed and explosiveness. Williams showed early promise on tape and has become more involved recently, delivering notable plays. Former quarterback Brian Hoyer compared Williams to a young Stefon Diggs, suggesting the Patriots could field multiple elite pass-catching threats to boost the offense.
