Drake Maye’s chances to start Week 1 remain strong, evidenced by his impressive performance and development despite Jacoby Brissett's dominance in first-team reps throughout training camp.
The decision to start Maye later in the season, potentially in Week 5, appears reasonable; it avoids a tough opening schedule and sets him up for success at home.
Inserting Maye into the lineup after the first month offers an ideal scenario, helping him dodge early-season challenges while ensuring he maintains momentum throughout his rookie year.
Avoiding a late-season slump is crucial for rookie quarterbacks, which New England learned after Mac Jones had a strong start but faltered later in his rookie season.
