Former New England Patriots running back James White sees similarities between his arrival in New England as a young player and Rhamondre Stevenson’s current role with the team.
White had followed other running backs, such as Stevan Ridley, Shane Vereen, Danny Woodhead and Kevin Faulk. It was up to him to continue carrying the proverbial torch in the backfield. White did his job, spending eight seasons with New England. He recorded 1,278 rushing yards and 3,278 receiving yards over the course of his career.
He was able to provide the Patriots with a multi-dimensional back, which was something New England needed with the departures of veteran playmakers.
