Former two-time NFL rushing leader visiting Patriots on Saturday

The search for added depth at the running back position continues for the New England Patriots with the team reportedly visiting with former two-time NFL rushing leader Ezekiel Elliott on Saturday.

This was first reported by NFL insider Jordan Schultz.

Elliott, 28, is one of many big-name running backs still a free agent due to a declining market at the position.

Make no mistake, there’s plenty of juice left in the tank for the former Dallas Cowboy, and he would be best utilized in more of a secondary role to complement another workhorse playmaker.
