Gen Z Patriots quarterback Drake Maye still drives a 2015 pickup truck even after it broke down on the highway—despite his $37 million contract

Patriots quarterback Drake Maye was a 2024 first round, third overall NFL draft pick with a reported $36.6 million contract—but you likely wouldn’t be able to tell it from the car he drives.

The 23-year-old still drives a 2015 GMC pickup truck that served him in high school growing up in the suburbs of Charlotte, N.C. The truck broke down off of Interstate 95 in January 2025, but the burgeoning football star refused to part with the vehicle—even at the behest of his high school football coach, The Washington Post reported.
