With NFL free agency almost here, recent Patriots rumors have been about running back Dion Lewis.
After a great season for the New England Patriots in 2017, Lewis is arguably the best player on the team that is a free agent this offseason. Last season, Lewis was able to total 896 rushing yards and six rushing touchdowns.
To start the season, Lewis wasn’t involved much in the offense and might have actually been on the roster bubble to start the season. However, the struggles of Mike Gillislee at the beginning of the season opened the door for Lewis, and he took advantage of it.
