"After noting in a recent SiriusXM NFL Radio interview that he's trying to heed the advice of offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels - who advised him to try to "try to keep the schedule the same as much as you can" - Maye admitted that he'd spoken with none other than Peyton Manning. "Peyton Manning reached out to me and talked about, you know, a similar thing," Maye told co-hosts Rich Gannon and Bruce Murray. "One of the first things he said [was], 'Keep the schedule the same. It's going to be hard.'""
""It's really full circle because I was at this game 10 years ago when Peyton won it against the Panthers," Maye, a Panthers fan growing up, explained. "I was here. My dad brought me. So it's a pretty cool moment to kind of get to know some of these guys that I looked up, great players and great throwers of the football." "It's pretty special that they're reaching out to me and taking time out of their day to try to help me try to go win the big one," he added. "So it means the world.""
"Manning and the Broncos defeated the Panthers 24-10 in Super Bowl 50, which (as Maye pointed out) was also played at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara."
Drake Maye sought guidance from veteran mentors while preparing for a major NFL game, following offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels' recommendation to maintain a consistent routine. Peyton Manning reached out to Maye and advised him to keep his schedule the same, cautioning that the experience will be difficult. Maye recalled attending Super Bowl 50 at Levi's Stadium as a Panthers fan when Manning and the Broncos beat the Panthers 24-10, and described the current outreach from accomplished players as a full-circle, meaningful experience. Maye expressed gratitude that experienced players are taking time to help him try to win a championship.
