Drake ‘Drake Maye’ Maye

add his nickname ~2025-36167-06 (talk) 00:52, 25 November 2025 (UTC)

 Not done. This… is just his real name? NotJamestack (✉️|📝) 00:53, 25 November 2025 (UTC)

It is his nickname recognized by Pro Football Reference and the NFL's social media.

If added should it be in like a different section somewhere, just so the first line isnt stroke-inducing? Mkenzx (talk) 21:28, 3 December 2025 (UTC)

As funny as it sounds, I feel like Drake "Drake Maye" Maye has genuinely garnered enough notability to be mentioned in the article if we can find sources. The meme's a big part of his media presence and is consistently referenced even by the actual commentators during football games. RyanAl6 (talk) 04:58, 15 January 2026 (UTC)

Since we have reliable sources that it it is in fact his nickname, it seems there should be no sustainable objection to adding it to some part of the article. Perhaps in a separate section? Dobermanji (talk) 14:14, 6 December 2025 (UTC)

What difference section should we put in in? Celticsfan041913 (talk) 23:55, 23 December 2025 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not KnowYourMeme. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 01:44, 24 December 2025 (UTC)

People genuinely call him Drake “Drake Maye” Maye. I even put sources of this and you guys don’t believe me. ~2025-40370-73 (talk) 19:55, 24 December 2025 (UTC)

Change the sentence in the Early life section from “Drake Maye and his brothers were competitive among each other” to “Drake Maye and his brothers were competitive with each other.”

-->“Competitive with each other” is the standard idiomatic construction in American English. “Competitive among each other” is nonstandard and inconsistent with Wikipedia’s Manual of Style for clear, natural prose. Liamaleavitt (talk) 21:22, 9 January 2026 (UTC)

You should make Drake Maye's nickname Drake "Drake Maye" Maye" because that is what people call him. ~2026-94326-9 (talk) 05:36, 12 February 2026 (UTC)

 Not done: His real name, Drake Maye, is his real name, and should not be his nickname.

Please add Maye took 21 sacks in the postseason in the 2025 section, and broke the NFL record for postseason sacks. Source: https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/patriots-drake-maye-caps-historically-051220899.html ~2026-99432-3 (talk) 19:01, 13 February 2026 (UTC)
