The Patriots have quite the history with sixth-round quarterbacks, and they may have another live one on their hands.

Former Tennessee Volunteer Joe Milton III wasnโ€™t the expected leader for the 2024 Patriots. That would be Drake Maye, who the Patriots drafted with the No. 3 pick at the top of the first round.

Nevertheless, the early scuttlebutt out of Patriots camp is that Milton is outplaying Maye. That could put him in line for some real playing time as the regular season approaches.ย 

It could also make Patriots odds a much more interesting proposition for 2024.
