Drake Maye Goes 17-of-20 in Patriots Minicamp as Christian Gonzalez Returns to Team Drills

Summary
Maye led Tuesday’s mandatory minicamp with a 17-of-20 showing in competitive 11-on-11 work, throwing a touchdown to Hunter Henry and repeatedly moving the ball underneath and downfield.
A.J. Brown supplied the day’s highlight on a back-shoulder catch near the right pylon, while Henry and DeMario Douglas each hauled in 5 passes as Maye spread targets across the first-team offense.
Gonzalez eased hold-in concerns by taking part in stretching, individual work and walkthrough team periods, though he sat out live 11-on-11 drills while contract-extension talks with New England continue.
The Patriots were still short-handed in spots: Morgan Moses, Harold Landry and unsigned Gabe Jacas were absent, and first-round rookie Caleb Lomu handled most starting right-tackle reps.
Tuesday’s session offered an early snapshot of a retooled Patriots offense under Josh McDaniels, with Maye building chemistry with new additions and the team set to continue minicamp Wednesday.
