No dated practice report for him this week
The club has not published one we can date, or the window has not reached it. Not the same as his having practised.
The reader concurs · grade B
Maye is the listed starter and was a full participant on the only reported practice day, 'meaning he took 100% of his typical reps' (P2), with PFT independently confirming he practiced fully while Gonzalez, Barmore and Moses did not practice at all (P5). Both a club voice and the player minimize the issue: McDaniels said 'I believe it just got dinged last week' (P1), and Maye said of the shoulder 'No, it hasn't' affected him (P5). Nothing in the passages describes a new setback, a downgrade, or a game-status designation, so the PLAY call stands; the uncertainty is only that no Thursday/Friday report or final designation is in evidence, and the Sept 28 Bills preview (P4) predates the practice week. It would need to know: Patriots official Thursday (Oct 1) and Friday (Oct 2) practice participation lines for Maye — did he stay a full participant all week?; The final Week 4 injury report game-status designation for Maye (Questionable or none) ahead of Sunday Oct 4 at Buffalo; Any Mike Vrabel press-conference remark naming Maye's right shoulder or his status for Buffalo; Whether New England gave first-team reps to a backup QB this week, or signed/elevated an extra quarterback

The model reads the room: who else is out shifts what his own designation is worth.
