Super Bowl LX: Is Drake Maye Playing? His Apparent Shoulder Injury, Explained
- On Tuesday, Drake Maye fielded questions about his shoulder on WEEI Afternoons and debunked claims he would be sidelined, affirming preparation for Super Bowl LX on February 8, 2026.
- Late in the third quarter, video shows Maye sliding from the pocket, tackled by Talanoa Hufanga and landing on his right shoulder; Dr. David Chao wrote, `Drake Maye injured his right throwing shoulder against the Broncos`.
- Two plays later, Maye delivered a 31-yard strike to Mack Hollins, finished 10-of-21 for 86 yards, added 65 rushing yards, stiff-armed Jonah Elliss, and rose quickly after a sack.
- Coach Mike Vrabel said not one player was 100% healthy and suggested speculation about Maye was overblown, with the Patriots' first injury report for Super Bowl LX due next week.
- Maye said the soreness likely reflects cumulative throwing over 30 weeks, adding two weeks before Super Bowl LX offers a chance to get healthy ahead of February 8 at Levi's Stadium.
