Patriots reportedly will be active seeking help at running back in free agency

Could we be seeing a new-look Patriots offense in 2021?

The team traded for offensive tackle Trent Brown last week and now there's a report indicating it could be seeking help at running back in free agency.


According to NFL Media's Tom Pelissero, the Patriots will be among the teams active seeking running back help in the coming days.

Perhaps this is an indication they believe James White will be moving on, as running backs under contract for 2021 are Sony Michel, Damien Harris, Brandon Bolden and J.J. Taylor. Rex Burkhead, who is coming off a torn ACL and likely won't be ready for the start of the season, is also a free agent.

The top running backs expected to be available are Chris Carson, Kenyan Drake and Jamaal Williams.

It would be a little surprising to see the Patriots prioritize the position, but as is always the case with Bill Belichick you just never know.
