Based on how he&#8217;s looked so far, it&#8217;s a nice contrast to last preseason when the focus was heavy on his fundamentals, and his comfort level wasn&#8217;t quite there.<\/p>\n<p>This year, that isn&#8217;t the case.\u00a0 There&#8217;s a lot of confidence and more command on the field from Maye, and it will be interesting to see how far he comes over the next few weeks, given how he&#8217;s performed to this point.<\/p>\n<div class=\"m-0 p-0 pb-0\" style=\"background-color: #313131; text-align: right; border-bottom-left-radius: 5px; border-bottom-right-radius: 5px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"pf_reveal lazy size-full wp-image-61358\" style=\"width: 100%; height: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.patsfans.com\/patriots\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/USATSI_26691165_168390408_lowres.jpg\" alt=\"Jul 23, 2025; Foxborough, MA, USA; New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs (8) makes a catch during training camp at Gillette Stadium.

I feel like I move way better.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So I feel really well.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Patriots have had two productive days of camp so far, and
