When you picture New England Patriots running backs of the 21st century, you don’t need to think long and hard before reaching a specific archetype: the undersized, jiggly receiving back who has been a key part of the team’s dynasty era.

Despite fielding one of the best starting trios in football, the New England Patriots had a low-key need at the cornerback position in free agency.
