The Patriots added more depth to their offensive personnel on Wednesday evening.
According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, New England signed running back James Robinson to a two-year contract worth a maximum value of $8 million.
Robinson, 24, split the 2022 season between the Jaguars and Jets. The Illinois State product totaled 425 rushing yards and 11 receptions between the two teams, but was non-tendered by New York earlier this week.
Injuries have hampered Robinson, who stormed onto the scene with Jacksonville during the 2020 season. He totaled 1,414 scrimmage yards that year, the most ever for an undrafted rookie.
