“I’ll be ready to go for Sunday,” Maye said.

Maye added he “feels good,” despite being listed as a full participant on both of the team’s practice reports this week. He did not share whether he hurt the knee during last weekend’s loss to the Texans or sometime this week. Maye did not wear a knee brace in either practice Wednesday or Thursday, nor show any visible sign of discomfort.

In fact, Maye impressed his coaches on Wednesday.

“He looks good,” Pats coach Jerod Mayo said Friday in England. “He’s been out there at practice and taking the majority of the reps.”

Neither Mayo nor Maye disclosed whether the quarterback underwent an MRI this week.

The Patriots are holding a traditional walkthrough on Friday at the Harrow School in greater London, an all-boys boarding school. The team will kick off Sunday against the Jaguars at Wembley Stadium with a 2:30 p.m. local start.

So far this season, players listed as full participants on the Patriots’ injury reports have played in the following weekend’s game. Offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt said Thursday he was “not concerned” about Maye’s knee.

The Patriots will release their final injury report Friday.
