Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo has been tasked with helping rebuild the roster, coaching staff and culture in his first offseason at the helm, but he’s also been busy redecorating.

The Bruins couldn’t avoid disaster in their Game 5 overtime loss to the Maple Leafs at TD Garden, but it appears they have heading into Game 6.

When the Patriots signed Jacoby Brissett in mid-March, the widespread expectation for the veteran quarterback was to be a bridge starter in New England or help develop an incoming rookie quarterback.

The Patriots were locked in on drafting Drake Maye, but multiple teams were candidates to trade into the No. 3 pick.
