Since Tom Brady's departure in 2020, New England has made just one playoff appearance. The Patriots feel that Maye will start the next chapter for the organization as they move past the Brady/Belichick era.

After hearing his name called on Thursday night in Detroit, Maye jetted off to his new home early the next morning. His girlfriend, Ann Michael documented their first visit to Gillette Stadium on Friday afternoon.

Ann Michael shared a photo on her Instagram story of Maye standing high above the field with the video board welcoming him to the team.

When Maye officially begins work with the New England Patriots, he will already have a familiar face in the quarterback room.

Last summer, he became friends with Jacoby Brissett, who re-signed with the team this offseason.
