Former Patriots QB weighs in on fixing Drake Maye's footwork issue

Former Patriots QB weighs in on fixing Drake Maye's footwork issue

During the lead-up to the draft, there was plenty of discussion about Drake Maye having some mechanical issues that need to be fixed. Specifically, the Patriots rookie quarterback, taken third overall, doesn't have the best footwork when it comes to maneuvering around the pocket, as well as delivering the football. Former Patriots quarterback Brian Hoyer, a guest on the “Eye on Foxborough” podcast, discussed the element of fixing Maye's footwork. Hoyer said when he came out of college, he also had similar issues, but his footwork got better pretty quickly given how “focused we were on it,” in the NFL, as compared with college.
