New England Patriots secara resmi menambah opsi quarterback muda dengan memilih Behren Morton dari Texas Tech pada putaran ketujuh NFL Draft 2024. Morton terpilih sebagai pilihan ke-234 secara keseluruhan, menjadikannya pemain ke-9 yang dipilih sebagai quarterback di musim ini.
Morton sebelumnya bermain selama lima musim di Texas Tech, di mana ia memulai 36 pertandingan dan mencatatkan rekor 26-10. Dalam kariernya, ia berhasil mengumpulkan 8.989 yard passing, 71 touchdown, serta 28 interceptions dengan persentase penyelesaian 62,8%.
Pada musim terakhirnya, Morton mencatatkan 2.780 yard passing, 22 touchdown, dan enam interceptions dalam 12 pertandingan. Sayangnya, ia sempat absen selama dua pertandingan akibat cedera retak rambut di kaki kanannya.
Dengan kehadiran Morton, Patriots kini memiliki tiga opsi quarterback: starter Drake Maye, Tommy DeVito, dan Morton sendiri. Hal ini memberikan fleksibilitas lebih bagi tim dalam menghadapi musim mendatang.
