Patriots HC Jerod Mayo says 'we've made a decision' on starting QB; announcement expected Thursday
Jerod Mayo is keeping the New England Patriots' QB1 decision to himself for one more sunrise.

The first-time head coach told reporters on Wednesday that he has decided whether Jacoby Brissett or rookie Drake Maye will open the season under center, but wants to communicate it to the players first.

"I know everyone wants to know that. I'm going to talk to the individual players tomorrow -- I'm going to have a team meeting tomorrow -- and then I'll get it to you guys," Mayo said. "Yes, we've made a decision; just haven't communicated. And honestly, I want those guys to hear it first from me before they hear it from someone else."
