One of the players on the New England Patriots that many are excited to see play is rookie running back, Sony Michel. After losing Dion Lewis in free agency, the Patriots decided to try and replace him in the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft.
With the 31st overall pick, the Patriots took Michel from Georgia. In college, Michel proved to be an explosive running back, and he could provide the Patriots with a home run threat in their backfield.
Last season, Michel average 7.9 yards per carrying, which looks like video game numbers.
