Patriots quarterback Drake Maye will miss the rest of today’s game in Germany.
Maye has been ruled out with an ankle injury after he was sacked by Aidan Hutchinson on the final play of the Patriots’ first offensive drive.
Hutchinson tackled Maye from behind and landed on the back of Maye’s legs. It was similar to the type of injury that can be caused by a hip-drop tackle or a horse-collar tackle, but it wasn’t a penalty, just an unfortunate play for Maye.
Patriots backup quarterback Tommy DeVito is in for Maye. Seventh-round rookie Behren Morton is the only other quarterback on the Patriots’ roster.
Hutchinson was also injured after the sack when he got up, jumped high into the air in celebration and then landed awkwardly. The Lions say he’s questionable to return with a knee injury.
The Lions lead 14-3 late in the second quarter.
