The NFL is facing pressure to discipline the New England Patriots for allegedly failing to disclose the true severity of quarterback Drake Maye's shoulder injury. The second-year signal-caller was scrubbed from the official injury report just days before the showpiece event, leading many to believe he was perfectly healthy. 'Do you agree with me that at this point, the NFL has no choice but to put some type of punishment on the Patriots for their Super Bowl injury report?' 1 story is the quarterback's injury, the quarterback said, 'I had the shoulder shot up,' that he was dealing with something.' By Saturday, his name had vanished from the injury report entirely, carrying no official designation into Sunday, which suggested he was at one hundred percent.
