Coach Jerod Mayo said Monday that Brissett remains the Patriots' starting quarterback, Taylor Kyles of CLNSMedia.com reports.

Brissett is coming off another ugly loss, this time completing 19 of 32 passes for 168 yards, one touchdown and one interception (a pick-six) in New England's 30-13 defeat at the hands of the 49ers in Week 4. He also had three rushing yards on two carries, took a whopping six sacks and fumbled three times, losing one. That actually constituted a step up from Brissett's performance in Week 3 in which he was held to 98 passing yards without a touchdown in a loss to the Jets. Mayo stated that he will "always reserve the right to do something else" and is "always going to do what's best for the organization," per Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald, but the Patriots aren't ready to turn to rookie first-round pick Drake Maye yet given the shoddy performance of the team's offensive line. Brissett will get another chance to line up under center during Sunday's divisional matchup against the Dolphins at home.
