Report: Patriots re-signing recently released running back

The New England Patriots are reportedly bringing back a familiar face to their running back room. Per ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, Deshaun Fenwick is re-signing with the Patriots after being waived in early August.

Fenwick is an undrafted rookie from Oregon State looking for an opportunity to stick on a roster at the next level. He'll be facing an uphill battle in New England with Rhamondre Stevenson, Antonio Gibson and Kevin Harris currently positioned as New England's top-three running back options.

However, he could impress the team enough in training camp and preseason games to earn a practice squad opportunity, if he fails to outright win a roster spot.
