Drake Maye Has Momentum on His Side Ahead of Battle with Jets

Saturday, December 27, 8:39 AM

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye is looking to build off an impressive win over the Baltimore Ravens in which he had 380 passing yards, 25 rushing yards, and a pair of touchdowns. He takes on the New York Jets in Week 17, and while this favorable matchup could see the Patriots run the ball often, Maye still has a chance to rack up fantasy points and touchdowns. The Jets have allowed the ninth-most fantasy points and seventh-most passing touchdowns to opposing quarterbacks in 2025, which is good news for Maye and his fantasy managers. In his last game against the Jets, he amassed 281 passing yards, one touchdown, and zero turnovers. However, there's bad news, too: the Patriots' receiving corps is limping into Week 17. At the wide receiver position, Kayshon Boutte (concussion) is ruled out, Mack Hollins (abdomen) is ruled out, and DeMario Douglas (hamstring) is listed as questionable. Maye's top passing options in the passing game will be Stefon Diggs, Kyle Williams, and Hunter Henry. Those are three dependable targets, but Maye will have fewer options if he's looking to spread the ball around. Despite the depleted supporting cast, we still expect Maye to take full advantage of this very favorable matchup. He ranks as a top-five fantasy quarterback for Week 17.
