Patriots’ preseason opener ended in a 13-13 tie with the Colts, spotlighting backups Tommy DeVito and Behren Morton as they got crucial reps behind starter Drake Maye. DeVito, who started, found his groove late, throwing a 12-yard TD to Kyle Williams — the team’s only score — finishing with 138 yards and one TD while admitting he’d like a few do-overs. Rookie Morton, making his NFL debut in the second half, called the stadium experience “really cool,” even if his stint yielded just three points — still a vital learning moment. Coach Mike Vrabel praised the reps and health of both QBs, stressing that while neither threatens Maye’s spot, these games are essential for building depth ahead of the regular season. A missed field goal sealed the draw — and the process continues.
