Patriots safety Jaylinn Hawkins punched the ball out from Henry with the Ravens driving late in the first quarter, with New England recovering the loose ball for an extra possession. It was Derrick Henry’s third lost fumble of the season. It’s the most he’s had since 2022, when he finished the year with three lost fumbles.
Starting with the ball at their own 32-yard line, it took the Patriots 10 plays to go 68 yards to the end zone. Quarterback Drake Maye converted third-and-2 with a short pass to Hunter Henry over the middle. Then he converted third-and-13 with a 20-yard gain to Mack Hollins.
A pass to Austin Hooper on the next play put the Patriots on the 1-yard line. From there, Maye rolled to his right and hit a wide-open Hunter Henry for the score.
It was Maye’s 24th touchdown pass of the season.
