Patriots Lock in Young QB Depth

0:00On April 1st, Patriots fans, Drake May, is locked in as your franchise quarterback heading into his third NFL season. But building a solid depth chart takes more than one star, so the team's shaking things up behind him. Earlier this offseason, they cut veteran Josh Dobbs after his short stint in New England. Then they locked down Tommy DeVito with a two-year contract worth $7,400,000, sliding him into the number two spot. DeVito jumped from third string last year, which has folks buzzing about a fresh young quarterback room. It's smart depth for a team rebuilding, giving May reliable backups without breaking the bank. Now the Pats are eyeing a rookie number three option, likely snagged in the fifth, sixth, or seventh round of the 2026 NFL draft. They could go undrafted for Agent 2, but late round value fits their plan perfectly. This sets up an ideal learning spot for that young arm, mentored by May with real chances to stick around and grow into something special.
