New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye spoke openly about his Christian faith during Super Bowl Media Day this week, using his national platform to highlight the role faith plays in his life both on and off the field.
While addressing reporters ahead of Super Bowl LX, Maye referenced Scripture and discussed how his beliefs guide him amid the pressure and attention that come with professional football. "I try to take advantage of this platform that I've been given," Maye said during a media session. "There's always been a constant in my life, and that's been my faith."
He continued by emphasizing the importance of keeping faith at the center of his life. "I'm a follower of Jesus Christ," Maye said. "The biggest thing in my life is keeping that at number one."
During other media appearances throughout the week, Maye shared that his favorite Bible verse is Proverbs 16:9, which reads, "In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps." The verse, he explained, reflects his belief that success and direction ultimately come from God rather than personal achievement alone.
Maye also briefly touched on personal topics during Super Bowl week, including marriage, encouraging teammates to consider it as a meaningful part of life. He described his own decision to marry young as one he does not regret.
As Super Bowl coverage continues to dominate headlines, Maye's comments have drawn attention for offering a faith-centered perspective during one of the most high-profile events in sports. Regardless of the game's outcome, his willingness to speak openly about belief has resonated with fans looking for authenticity beyond the scoreboard.
