While discussing Maye's offseason workouts with his Patriots teammates, 98.5 The Sports Hub radio host and Patriots radio analyst Scott Zolak shared a story of how the newlyweds made a special gesture to their local community after their wedding.
'So the wedding gifts,' Zolak said on Tuesday during the latest taping of 'Zolak & Bertrand.' 'He didn't tell anybody, and he had this supposed deal with his wife. … They did a lot of donating with the local kids shelters and stuff for the area he grew up in and some kids didn't have [the right] size shoes, didn't have some Christmas stuff.

'They didn't tell anybody, but they took their wedding gifts and sent them to the homeless and help centers down there. Everything that they got, they forwarded it. They got no wedding gifts, didn't receive any.'
It was a great gesture from both Drake and Ann Michael — who met and began dating at the age of 12, according
Since last month's festivities, Maye has wasted no time getting up to speed ahead of his second season with the Patriots.
Even with training camp still a few weeks away in Foxborough, Maye and several Patriots offensive players have taken part in organized workouts over the last week. Stefon Diggs, Joshua Dobbs, Rhamondre Stevenson, Hunter Henry, Kendrick Bourne, DeMario Douglas, Ja'Lynn Polk, and rookie Kyle Williams have all taken part in the sessions with Maye.

Former Ohio State football star signs rookie NFL contract with New England Patriots

Patriots sign 2025 second-round draft pick RB TreVeyon Henderson: Former Ohio State running back TreVeyon Henderson has signed his rookie contract with the New England Patriots. The signing occurred on Saturday, according to multiple sources and confirmed by the Patriots themselves. And while details of contracts can be hard to come by at first, based on some reporting from KPRC 2's Aaron Wilson, the contract details are very much in favor of the standout running back. The Patriots agreed to sign Henderson to a four-year, $11.143 million fully guaranteed contract, including a $4.74 million signing bonus. Fully guaranteed in today's NFL is quite the contract, one that should make Henderson very happy as he starts his career in New England. The Hopewell, Virginia, native played for Ohio State for four years, splitting time his last season with Ole Miss transfer Quinshon Judkins. Both backs went over 1,000 yards for the season en route to a College Football Playoff national championship, but it was Henderson who was more of the home run threat. He was selected by the Patriots with the No. 38 pick in the second round of the draft. It should be fun watching the game-breaking ability of the former Buckeye as things get going during his rookie campaign.
