But the Patriots answered in the second quarter as the rookie scored two short rushing scores before the ball carrier hauled in a throw from Drake Maye at the rear of the end zone in the middle of the third period to push the score to 21 to 7

"That was a key occasion for him rising to the challenge, and it's been great for him to keep gaining experience," Maye commented on the rookie. "He wants to be outstanding."

Justin Fields connected with Metchie in the latter part of the third period to reduce the lead for the visitors but Borregales booted a two kicks in the fourth quarter as the home side closed out the win
