Now, it\u2019s not so clear.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cIt\u2019s spring football, every position is open,\u201d Rhamondre Stevenson said at mandatory minicamp last week. \u201cNobody has a set position. There\u2019s no 1\u2019s, 2\u2019s, 3\u2019s right now. So we\u2019re just all out here working hard, trying to get better, and [let the] chips fall where they may.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Still, top spots for Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson seem assured.

But according to running backs coach Tony Dews, everyone\u2019s still competing for the No. 1 spot.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cYou should never be content and comfortable, because in this league anybody can take a job at any point,\u201d Dews said. \u201cWe\u2019ve seen it through the years, and then obviously if you play this game, there\u2019s a 100 percent chance that you\u2019re going to fall into some type of injury at this point, and the idea is if someone gets dinged up, that there\u2019s not a drop-off when the next person has to play.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<div><span>Related<span>: <\/span><\/span>Patriots could use depth at edge rusher and tight end, and leftover thoughts from minicamp<\/div>\n<p><span>Last season, Jennings, who had been on the practice squad, only joined the 53-man roster after Antonio Gibson was lost for the season with a torn ACL. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Now that Gibson has been released, the difference between Jennings earning a roster spot or reverting to the practice squad (or getting cut) is Larison.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Larison totaled seven carries for 35 yards and a touchdown last preseason against the Commanders before he got hurt. He also had a 25-yard kickoff return.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The Patriots opted to keep the 2025 undrafted free agent from UC Davis around at least for another summer. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/bostonrelocationinsider.com\/?p=2930\">Why are traffic cones appearing on statues all over Boston during the World Cup? The Scots explain.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cHe worked really hard to work through the injury and just continue to get stronger and give himself another opportunity going into training camp,\u201d said coach Mike Vrabel. \u201cMentally, he\u2019s not a rookie.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Larison used his time healing to work on his strength and conditioning and watch the rest of the running backs closely. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Henderson and Stevenson accounted for 83.5 percent of the carries last year, and this year fullback Reggie Gilliam joins the group. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The No. 3 running back\u2019s biggest responsibility will likely be special teams. Every back got a shot returning kickoffs last season, a trend special teams coordinator Jeremy Springer said will continue.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>As the summer goes on, the development of Miller and Montgomery should certainly play a factor in this battle, too. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Miller was the lead back at Alabama, an experience that Dews said has helped him adjust physically to the NFL. Montgomery comes from the University of Central Florida and received $272,500 in guarantees, the most of any undrafted free agent in franchise history. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201c[Miller] and Myles both are doing a great job of working through it, taking advantage of the opportunities and reps they get out here at practice,\u201d Dews said. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Even though the duo hasn\u2019t seen much time with the first unit, they have a chance to make an impression during training camp. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>When the pads go on, tension could rise as Dews is looking for backs that \u201ccompete every day.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cWe all work off one another, we all help one another,\u201d Stevenson said. \u201cWe talk, we take things from each other\u2019s game, and hopefully this can be a better year in our running back room for all of us.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/bostonrelocationinsider.com\/?p=2928\">\u2018No Scotland, no party!\u2019 Boston is starting to agree.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Top spots for Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson seem assured.
