""I think last year, I was preparing and trying to kind of review the call sheet and kind of hit guys here and there as the backup going into Week 1," Maye said."
""I think there's always a different kind of juice when you're coming out here as the starter, and you run out there the first snap and juices are flowing and those guys are looking at me, and it's my huddle and it's my offense. "So I think it's a different feel, and I'm excited. That's one of the things I'm most excited for, getting out there and getting to start Week 1. And I think with the home crowd, in front of our fans, and there's a lot of build-up always for Week 1, and I think it's always good to get out there and show out.""
Drake Maye became New England's starting quarterback in Week 6 of 2024 and started 12 games that season. Maye enters the 2025 campaign as the unquestioned Week 1 starter and anticipates a different energy leading the offense and huddle. He is excited about starting in front of the home crowd and showing out in Week 1. Preseason game reps were limited, with Maye completing 7-of-12 passing attempts across two games and committing a turnover. Maye delivered strong showings during competitive joint practices with the Commanders and Vikings, though the preseason sample remained small.
