Outlook Drake Maye

Drake Maye vs LV — Building on Momentum After Statement Win in Buffalo

Maye rebounded in Week 4 by leading New England to an upset win over Buffalo, throwing three touchdowns and showcasing strong rushing ability with no lingering shoulder issues. While his aggressive play energized the passing attack, downfield decision-making remains a watchpoint after logging seven interceptions through four games.

Looking ahead to Las Vegas, our weekly projection expects 216 passing yards, 33 rushing yards, and 16.3 fantasy points. Favored at home by four points, Maye's rushing floor and increasing start percentage keep him firmly in play as a solid streaming option and strong QB2.
