Runningbacks
Perhaps the strongest position on the team is the Runningback room. The Patriots have two strong RBs in Damien Harris and Rhamondre Stevenson. Neither has achieved elite status because of the way the Patriots deploy their backs. Seldom does either back get over 20 carries a game. The Patriots have deployed a running back by committee approach. Third down passing downs have been dedicated to a designated back that is a great receiver and pass blocker. The Patriots surprised everyone and drafted two running backs this year.
Damien Harris –Harris started his pro career slowly by actually getting a redshirt year his 1st year in the league in 2019.
