New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye has received no game designation on the team's final injury report and is cleared to play this weekend, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Maye, who had been monitored throughout the week due to a knee injury, participated in practice and showed enough progress to be removed from the injury report entirely. The rookie signal-caller's availability is a significant boost for the Patriots offense as they head into their upcoming matchup. Maye was a full participant in Friday's practice session, confirming his readiness to lead the team on Sunday.
The news comes after Maye underwent an MRI earlier in the week, which reportedly showed no major damage. With no "Questionable" or "Doubtful" tag attached to his name, the first-round pick is expected to start under center without limitations for the New England Patriots.
