Running Backs

  • Sony Michel
  • James White
  • Damien Harris
  • James Develin

Sony Michel’s rookie year started out slow as he battled various injuries, but he broke out in the playoffs in a big way while taking over the feature back role for the Patriots. White remains an excellent third-down receiving back. Harris will take over the power back role and help on Special Teams as well. Develin is a versatile fullback/H-back who is also a key Special Teamer.
