Patriots' Bailey Zappe: Throws for 108 yards Thursday
Bailey Zappe completed 12 of his 20 pass attempts for 108 yards and ran once for six yards in Thursday's 17-3 preseason win over the Panthers.Per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com, Zappe logged a team-high 36 snaps among the New England Patriots' QBs in the team's exhibition opener, while top options Jacoby Brissett (four snaps) and Drake Maye (six snaps) both saw limited action in the contest.
