The New England Patriots will look quite different in 2025 after turning over their coaching staff yet again. And while that tends to be a death sentence for most young quarterbacks, Drake Maye is optimistic about how things will ultimately turn out.

Maye also ran for 421 yards and 22 first downs, and was a late addition to the Pro Bowl games.
