One of those guys coming back is James White. White, who suffered a hip subluxation a year ago, has been slowly returning to normal. Not football normal, but to a normal life. “I think as the months have gone on. I’ve gotten better…

James White, a three-time Super Bowl champion and Patriot since 2014, is going to be a free agent in just over a week for the second year in a row. Like last year, the Patriots should bring him back into the fold for 2022 to bolster their already strong running back group.

Patriots: Mac Jones gets his first NFL win, but knows there’s plenty of room to improve

September 19, 2021

Photo: NFL.com I’m sure Mac Jones had a bit of a different picture in his head when he dreamed of his first win in the NFL. It wasn’t a 300-yard, four-touchdown performance. It wasn’t a blowout. It wasn’t even all that entertaining, but New England’s 25-6 win over the Jets on Sunday gave Jones the first victory of his career. Jones finished with 186 yards and 22 completions on 30…

Patriots: Running backs continue to impress in second preseason game

August 19, 2021

For everyone like me who would rather watch a 38-35 game over a 24-21 game, we may be out of luck when watching the Patriots this season. I’m okay with it too if this is what it’s going to look like for the next six months or so. The Patriots offensive line and running backs were completely dominant on Thursday night in a 35-0 preseason win over Philadelphia. Now, in…

Patriots: Running backs show off versatility in win over Washington

August 13, 2021

No matter who the Patriots quarterback is this season, their job may be a lot easier. Not because of the wide receivers or tight ends they signed and not just because of their outstanding offensive line, but because this group of running backs may be one of the best in the NFL and it was on display Thursday night.
