    • Damien Harris
    • Rhamondre Stevenson
    • Ty Montgomery
    • Pierre Strong Jr.
    • Kevin Harris
    • J.J. Taylor

    Harris had a mini-breakout for the Patriots during the 2021 NFL season. He served as the team's top runner, playing a position-high 407 snaps and recording 202 of the team's 489 carries. Harris notched 929 yards and 15 touchdowns, the latter stat tying for second-most in the NFL with James Conner and behind only Jonathan Taylor. His career numbers ...

    Stevenson represents the biggest threat to displacing Harris from the starting role. The second-year back from Oklahoma cut into Harris' workload as a rookie, generating 606 yards and five touchdowns on 133 carries. Belichick's trust in Stevenson was noteworthy; the longtime coach has been reluctant to give rookie running backs touches over the las...

    The Patriots signed Montgomery during the 2022 NFL offseason to provide veteran insurance behind James White. On Thursday, White retired from the NFL after eight seasons, so that could push Montgomery into the lead receiving back for the Patriots. Montgomery, a third-round pick by the Packers in 2015, has played both receiver and running back in th...

    Strong is another candidate to replace White, and he comes with significantly more upside than the 29-year-old Montgomery. The Patriots' 2022 fourth-round pick starred at FCS South Dakota State, recording three 1,000-yard rushing seasons and logging 1,673 yards and 18 touchdowns on 240 carries as a senior. Strong (5-11, 205 pounds) has steadily imp...

    Strong wasn't the only running back the Patriots drafted in 2022. They spent a sixth-round selection on Harris, who played three seasons at South Carolina. Harris racked up just 660 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 152 carries in 2021, but in a breakout 2020 campaign, he rushed for 1,138 yards and 12 touchdowns on 185 carries. Harris is well-bu...

    Taylor has been with the Patriots the past two years after going undrafted out of Arizona. He averaged 4.8 yards per carry on 23 totes as a rookie before logging a paltry 1.9 yards on 19 carries last year. He looks like a potential practice squad stash.

  5. nesn.com › 2022 › 09Top Five Greatest Running Backs In New England Patriots History

    • James White (2014-2021) If James White retired the day after Super Bowl LI he would have cracked this list. Perhaps the franchise’s greatest individual Super Bowl performance, White’s 139 yards and three touchdowns led a comeback from 25 points down against the Atlanta Falcons.
    • Kevin Faulk (1999-2011) Thirteen seasons. Three-time Super Bowl champion. 8,145 all-purpose yards. 32 touchdowns. Kevin Faulk was a swiss-army knife, and that’s what made him so great.
    • Jim Nance (1965-1971) Much like Martin’s lack of longevity, Jim Nance’s lack of winning holds him back on this list. In his seven season’s as Boston/New England’s feature back, Nance carried the Patriots to a 31-62 record.
    • Sam Cunningham (1973-1982) Placing the franchise’s all-time leading rusher in fourth place is probably taboo, but the numbers surrounding Sam “Bam” Cunningham’s 5,453 yards aren’t too hot.
