Patriots' Jacoby Brissett: Benched late in Week 3 loss

Brissett completed 12 of 18 passes for 98 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions in the Patriots' 24-3 loss to the Jets on Thursday night. He was replaced by Drake Maye with 4:24 remaining in the game.

Brissett's final numbers, which also included five sacks taken, tell the tale of how difficult a night it was for the Patriots offense. The veteran signal-caller hasn't averaged more than 5.5 yards per attempt in any of his first three contests, but due to the fact New England's Week 4 matchup on Sunday, Sept. 29 involves a visit to the 49ers, Brissett could get the call over the inexperienced Maye for that daunting assignment.
