Drake Maye has one rushing touchdown through six games of the 2026 season, coming on seven carries in the Week 5 rout of the Raiders. The second-year Patriots quarterback has added 185 rushing yards on 34 attempts overall, relying on scrambles and occasional designed runs while the offense has leaned on his passing production during a three-game win streak. New England sits at 4-2 in the AFC East, with Maye posting strong passer ratings in recent outings but limited goal-line rushing opportunities. The team faces a short-week road test Thursday against the Bears before matchups with Miami and Green Bay. Maye’s prior full season included four rushing scores, highlighting his mobility in favorable situations.
