Jerod Mayo heaps praise on Patriots' rookie offensive lineman originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston
After a rough preseason, the New England Patriots offensive line delivered a promising performance in the team's Week 1 upset win over the Cincinnati Bengals.
The unit excelled in the run game, allowing Rhamondre Stevenson to take over with 120 yards and a touchdown on 25 carries. Rookie fourth-rounder Layden Robinson played a key role in that success at right guard in his NFL debut.
The 6-foot-3, 311-pounder impressed while playing every offensive snap in New England's 16-10 victory.
