FOXBOROUGH, Mass — “I’m going to do everything that I can to protect him.”
That’s the mindset Caleb Lomu is bringing to New England as he prepares to block for Drake Maye.
The third-year quarterback has certainly impressed despite his short time in the league, showing flashes of promise in his rookie year, followed by an MVP-caliber season that helped the Patriots make it to the Super Bowl. So with that, Lomu can't wait to work with him.
"I'm so excited for that," he said. "Younger quarterback coming in, such an amazing player. I mean, what they’ve got going there, especially their offense that I'll be a part of, and just a team, they're on the rise and it's amazing. Drake Maye, such a talented quarterback.
"I'm so excited to be able to work with him every day, be able to protect him. I'm a protector, I'm an offensive lineman - it's my job to protect that guy, and I'm going to do everything that I can to protect him. So, being able to go to work with him now is going to be amazing."
Along with Maye, Lomu also provided a review of Mike Vrabel, detailing his first impressions of the head coach.
"Yeah, I loved him," Lomu explained. "I walked in there, and he was definitely playing his role. He was kind of mean-mugging a little bit. So, I walked in there, and that made me a little intimidated. He just started asking questions, you know? He knew he was a tough guy in there, so I walked in, he started asking me questions, was getting on me a little bit, and it was awesome.
"Then right after, it was all smiles. He came up to me, shook my hand, said, ‘Really good job,’ and I just walked out. It’s just speed dating at the Combine, but I loved it. He was a very serious guy, and he's an amazing coach. I can't wait to be able to play for him."
