Drake Maye had several mentors in New England. He revealed how one Patriots legend helped him during his rookie season

James White knows what it’s like to play for Josh McDaniels, who the New England Patriots recently hired to be their offensive coordinator for the third time. White was drafted by the Patriots in 2014 but didn’t see the field much as a rookie.

Drake Maye is more than familiar with his new offensive coordinator. When the quarterback came to New England last year, he dove into his new playbook but also watched game film from past Patriots seasons. As it turns out, those film sessions will come in handy this season when Maye is coached by Josh McDaniels for the first time.
