The New England Patriots signed Romeo Doubs this offseason, and the new receiver sent a message about Drake Maye on Tuesday.
“Very poised guy,” Doubs said, per 98.5 The Sports Hub’s Alex Barth. “Very energetic. All about ball. That’s something I appreciate being around him. He’s an amazing dude, an amazing quarterback in this league.”
Doubs has played with Aaron Rodgers in his career, so he knows what great quarterback play looks like. He seems to think Maye is a stellar quarterback, and the two could put up monster numbers together. Doubs was brought in to replace Stefon Diggs, who led the team in receiving and posted a 1,000-yard season.
Doubs has never been a true No. 1 option in his NFL career. The Green Bay Packers’ offense was known for spreading the ball around, but on the Patriots, Doubs will have a bigger role. He is currently slated to be the team’s top option, but reports suggest A.J. Brown will be a Patriot after June 1.
Doubs also spoke to the media about the prospect of playing with Brown. He seemed welcoming to the idea and noted that Brown is one of the best receivers in the league. Regardless of whether Brown is there or not, Doubs and Maye should be able to have a great season.
