But the final score barely registered next to the sight of Drake Maye limping to the locker room after just one drive.\n\nMaye went down after taking a sack from Lions edge rusher Aidan Hutchinson, who landed on his foot. He stayed down briefly, walked gingerly on the sideline, then headed inside for good and did not return. Tommy DeVito came in to finish the game for New England. The opening drive had actually ended in a field goal, giving the Patriots an early 3-0 lead before everything went sideways.\n\nHutchinson didn't escape clean either. He got up and celebrated the sack but left the game in the first quarter with a knee injury of his own, giving the Lions their own thing to worry about despite the win.\n\nFor Detroit, which improved to 7-2, the victory was comfortable. For New England, the real story is what Maye's ankle means for the rest of the season, with his prognosis still unknown as the Patriots try to figure out life without their young quarterback.","published_at":"2026-11-15T19:34:25.681131+00:00","source_count":6,"written_from":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Twitter reacts to Drake Maye injury, Patriots blowout loss","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/twitter-reacts-drake-maye-injury-191251582.html"},{"outlet":"The Athletic","publisher":"The Athletic","title":"After Lions' dominating win, how will Patriots get by without injured Drake Maye?","url":"https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7783604/2026/11/15/patriots-lions-munich-nfl-week-10-result-takeaways/"},{"outlet":"Pro Football Talk","publisher":"NBC Sports","title":"Drake Maye out for game with ankle injury after getting sacked by Aidan Hutchinson","url":"https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/drake-maye-out-for-game-with-ankle-injury-after-getting-sacked-by-aidan-hutchinson"},{"outlet":"Fox Sports","publisher":"Fox Sports","title":"Drake Maye Leaves Patriots' Game Against Lions With Ankle Injury","url":"https://www.foxsports.com/stories/nfl/drake-maye-ankle-injury-update-patriots"},{"outlet":"New York Post","publisher":"New York Post","title":"Drake Maye exits with ankle injury, Tommy DeVito enters in Patriots scare","url":"https://nypost.com/2026/11/15/sports/drake-maye-exits-with-ankle-injury-tommy-devito-enters-in-patriots-nightmare/"},{"outlet":"SB Nation","publisher":"SB Nation","title":"Drake Maye injury: Patriots QB hurts ankle vs. Lions","url":"https://www.sbnation.com/nfl/1136240/drake-maye-injury-patriots-lions-qb"}],"more_coverage":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Drake Maye departs Lions game with ankle injury","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/drake-maye-departs-lions-game-145922818.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Drake Maye injury update: Latest news on Patriots QB’s status in Week 10 game","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/drake-maye-injury-latest-news-150044731.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Drake Maye injury update as Patriots QB goes to locker room","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/drake-maye-injury-patriots-qb-150329823.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Drake Maye limps to locker room, Tommy DeVito in at QB for Patriots in Germany","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/drake-maye-limps-locker-room-150028757.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Patriots QB Drake Maye exits game early with injury","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/patriots-qb-drake-maye-exits-150547615.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Patriots QB Drake Maye questionable to return after suffering ankle injury against Lions","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/patriots-qb-drake-maye-questionable-151108200.html"},{"outlet":"Pro Football Talk","publisher":"NBC Sports","title":"Drake Maye limps to locker room, Tommy DeVito in at QB for Patriots in Germany","url":"https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/drake-maye-limps-to-locker-room-tommy-devito-in-at-qb-for-patriots-in-germany"},{"outlet":"The Athletic","publisher":"The Athletic","title":"Drake Maye leaves game vs. Lions with ankle injury, listed as questionable","url":"https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7783741/2026/11/15/drake-maye-injury-ankle-lions-germany/"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Drake Maye injury: Patriots QB hurts ankle vs. Lions","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/drake-maye-injury-patriots-qb-151411451.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"What happened to Drake Maye?
