Trevon Diggs Shocks With Strong Statement About His Future at Dallas Cowboys: Will the Defensive Star Decide to Leave After Disagreements, Heated Arguments, and Rising Emotions This Season 

Foxborough, Massachusetts – January 27, 2026 – As the New England Patriots prepare to face the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl LX, an unexpected and powerful compliment came from the legendary Joe Montana. The former QB of the San Francisco 49ers, who won 4 Super Bowl titles and 3 Super Bowl MVPs, made impressive remarks about Drake Maye. Montana shared on the Pat McAfee Show: "I just think he's playing to his potential, and that's all he needs to do." These words were not just praise, but also an acknowledgment from one of the greatest legends in NFL history. Montana has proven that Maye is truly on the path to becoming a champion. This season, Drake Maye has proven himself to be an outstanding QB with 4,394 yards, 31 touchdowns, a 72% completion rate, and a QB rating of 113.5. He has made a strong mark, becoming the second-youngest QB in history to make it to the Super Bowl, after Dan Marino. This excellent performance has led the Patriots to the biggest game of the season. The Patriots won the AFC East championship with a 14-3 record, solidifying the team’s position in the AFC. With this victory, Maye and his teammates are heading to Super Bowl LX to face off against the Seattle Seahawks, their Super Bowl XLIX opponent, whom they defeated 28-24 in 2015. This Super Bowl presents an opportunity for the Patriots to continue their pursuit of their seventh title in franchise history. In 2019, the Patriots won their sixth Super Bowl by defeating the Los Angeles Rams 13-3. With the current form, Maye is the team's biggest hope in their quest for a seventh championship. Before the important game, Drake Maye responded with words that have made Patriots Nation proud. He shared: "I truly can't believe I’m receiving such praise from one of the greatest legends in NFL history. That’s something I’ll carry with me for the rest of my career. And I’ll take those words as motivation to fight with everything I have, to bring this team the Super Bowl LX ring and bring pride to Patriots Nation." Maye’s emotions reflect his respect for what Montana has accomplished in his career. Maye’s response quickly earned admiration and pride from the Patriots community. Not only is he a star on the field, but Maye has also demonstrated humility and grace in receiving praise from one of the NFL's greatest. With this pride, Patriots Nation is even more hopeful for another victory for the team.
