News about Bailey Zappe

Praise is being heaped on New England Patriots rookie quarterback Drake Maye after his strong performance in Thursday night's preseason matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.  Maye scrambled for a touchdown and completed six of eleven passes as he got playing time in the second and third quarters of a 14-13 loss to the Eagles.  Despite the loss, Maye showed spots of brilliance in his play - leading many to praise him for his decision making and throws.

New England Patriots quarterback Bailey Zappe and his fiancée Hannah enjoyed an intimate outdoor wedding in Montana ahead of the training camp. The couple traded vows last Wednesday in a small ceremony of 30 guests, according to The Knot. On Monday, the newlyweds posted pictures of their wedding, which featuring the stunning Montana landscapes. The Zappes posed in front of a lake with the mountains and greenery in the background before partying with close friends and family at the reception.

Even if he didn't know which quarterback they had defeated, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce was left ecstatic by the team's victory on Sunday. With a 27-17 victory over the England Patriots on Sunday, the Chiefs snapped their two-game losing streak, with Travis's girlfriend Taylor Swift watching on once more. Travis expressed relief after losing to the Green Bay Packers and the Buffalo Bills the two previous weeks, but he sighed with relief on Sunday as the Philadelphia Eagles slumped to their third straight defeat on Monday night.

Taylor Swift is not a fan of the Patriots or the Chiefs, according to them, ahead of their game against Travis Kelce and the Chiefs on Sunday. In the recent months, the pop star has made a name for herself at Kansas City games, as her friendship with tight end Kelce has dominated the headlines. When the Chiefs look to return to winning ways against the struggling Patriots, she could be in Foxborough on Sunday.

On Thursday night, the New England Patriots defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers by 21-18, a dramatic victory. In a tight AFC playoff race, New England improved to 3-10, while Pittsburgh fell to 7-6. Midway through the second quarter, the Patriots led 21-3, but the Patriots won despite not scoring for the final 37 minutes of the game.

After Bailey Zappe and Malik Cunningham were seen taking all of the snaps in Wednesday's practice, New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones may have been demoted as starting quarterback. According to ESPN, Jones and Will Grier were not seen throwing any passes during the game. Bill Belichick, the Patriots' head coach, refused to comment on the QB's future.

Rex Ryan of ESPN has seen more of the 'Patriot way,' especially with coach Bill Belichick's team losing to 2-9 on Sunday. The Patriot Way, which was once used to describe New England's locker-room culture during the Tom Brady era, is now being blamed for the team's inability under Belichick, who drew Ryan's ire during Monday's episode of 'Get Up.' As the Patriots lost to the hapless New York Giants on Sunday, Belichick refused to name a starting quarterback before Sunday, the ex-Jets and Bills coach struck back at his former rival. After Patriots quarterbacks Mac Jones and Bailey Zappe both failed at MetLife Stadium, Ryan said, 'Can I just say this: Bill Belichick, please excuse me.' 'Just select your dang starter.' It doesn't matter whether it's Zappe or 'Pea Shooter' Jones, they both stink, as we care about your team. Your staff is stench.' Brady was lauded by Belichick for his six Super Bowl rings, but Ryan took a step farther.

The New England Patriots were able to at least score against the New York Giants on Sunday due to a quarterback change at halftime. After struggling in the first half, coach Bill Belichick decided to bench Mac Jones and call on Bailey Zappe to help with the offense. Zappe made his presence immediately by completing his first six passes for 38 yards. To level New York's 7-0 halftime lead, Zappe gave the ball to Rhamondre Stevenson who scored a touchdown.

According to reports, the New England Patriots will cut backup quarterback Bailey Zappe and Malik Cunningham, leaving the team without a backup plan behind starter Mac Jones. NFL Insider Jordan Schultz reported the Cunningham decision on X, formerly Twitter, a few weeks after NFL Network's Ian Rapoport announced the news on Zappe.

In a horrific scene in New England's preseason match against the Packers in Green Bay, Patriots rookie cornerback Isaiah Bolden was stretchered off the field on a stretcher.

Through an offseason of uncertainty, New England linebacker Josh Uche has put faith in quarterback Mac Jones. Bill Belichick reportedly tried to fire the third-year quarterback after a slow sophomore season and frustration with seeking advice outside of the Patriots' building, according to a ProFootballTalk article. Jones is expected to be in the New England quarterback room and, most likely, the starter over second-year signal-caller Bailey Zappe.

The Chicago Bears' 33-14 blowout loss on Monday did little to clarify the New England Patriots' quarterback situation, and head coach Bill Belichick isn't about to tip his hand. During his weekly interview with Boston's WEEI, Belichick said, 'We'll do what we feel is best for the football team.' After three series on Monday, starter Mac Jones was suspended in favour of rookie Bailey Zappe, who had played well in two starts as the former Alabama quarterback recovered from an ankle injury sustained in the Green Bay Packers' loss in October 2nd. Jones completed just three of his six passes, one of which was intercepted, against the Bears, while Zappe connected on 14 of 22 attempts, but had a pair of picks to go with his one touchdown.

The NFL's Week 7 slate may be lacking, but it is certainly not worth disregarding completely. The Bills (5-1), the Vikings (5-1), defending-championship (3-3), and Eagles (6-0) are among the team's on a bye, so the whole affair is clearly uphill battle with viewers. In fact, there is just one match between winning teams this week, and that will be between the Colts and Titans — both of whom are ranked in the lower half of the NFL in points scored. Meanwhile, the middling injuries-plagued Steelers (2-4) and Dolphins (3-3), while the Saints and Cardinals are battling 2-4 teams on Thursday Night Football.

If Pittsburgh sticks with its quarterback heir apparent, the Eagles face a tougher test in the desert, the Rams look to get back to track, and an AFC North match could result in the departure of a new leader in the division. It all leads to our Game of the Week, when the Packers fly to London for the first time to face a Giants team that has defied all expectations.

If there is such a thing as an ugly win, the Green Bay Packers proved their existence this weekend, with QB Aaron Rodgers being forced to overtime against a New England Patriots team that had to call in its rookie third string quarterback. After Patriots starter Mac Jones was hospitalized in last week's loss to the Ravens, New England travelled to Lambeau Field with backup Brian Hoyer starting the game. In the first quarter of the game, Hoyer was hospitalized and then left the field with a head injury. Bailey Zappe, a fourth-round pick out of Western Kentucky, was in his place in this his first game of his NFL career.
