The New England Patriots will try to put an end to a four-game losing streak on Sunday when going head-to-head with the Houston Texans.
Rookie quarterback Drake Maye is set to make his official NFL debut as a starter against one of the best pass-rushing teams in the league. The Texans look like a potential Super Bowl contender led by one of the league’s bright, young quarterbacks in C.J. Stroud.
It’s a mountain of a challenge for a first-year player like Maye to overcome behind the worst offensive line in football.
However, crazier things have happened in the NFL, and Maye spent his entire collegiate career proving people wrong. We’ll see if that same swagger translates at the next level.
