Drake Maye Calls Super Bowl Loss 'Humbling,' Sets Goal to Return

Analysts note AFC quarterbacks who lose their first Super Bowl almost never get back.

Overview

  • At The Masters over the weekend, Maye said the loss taught him to get back to work and he aims to return to the Super Bowl.
  • The Patriots lost Super Bowl LX 29-13 to the Seahawks as Maye threw for 295 yards and two touchdowns but had two interceptions, a lost fumble returned for a touchdown, and six sacks.
  • Maye pushed back on talk that a right-shoulder issue affected his play and said he felt fine going into the game.
  • He is coming off a breakout season as the MVP runner-up after leading New England from a 4-13 record in 2024 to 14-3 with an AFC title in 2025.
  • CBS Sports highlights a steep hill for a quick return, pointing out no AFC quarterback since 1994 has reached a second Super Bowl after losing his debut.
