Maye (shoulder) was a full participant in Friday's practice and does not have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Buffalo.
Maye practiced fully all week but is fighting through a right shoulder issue early in the season. The runner-up for MVP honors last season, Maye has been a colossal fantasy disappointment through three weeks and will now face a Bills defense that generates pressure at a high clip.
Patriots' Drake Maye: On injury report, but practices fully
Rotowire
Maye was listed with a right shoulder injury on the Patriots' initial Week 4 practice report but was a full participant.
Though he took every rep Wednesday and is on track to start Sunday's game in Buffalo, the lingering shoulder injury could at least partially explain Maye's rough start to the season. After finishing as the runner-up to the Rams' Matthew Stafford in the MVP balloting in 2025, Maye has been an early disappointment for fantasy managers, completing 63.7 percent of his passes for 585 yards while posting a 1:6 TD:INT and losing a fumble through the Patriots' first three games. A road game against the undefeated Bills doesn't exactly represent a great bounce-back opportunity for Maye, who will face pressure from a Bills pass rush led by NFL sack leader Greg Rousseau.
