The Patriots’ newest running back, Bishop Sankey is an exciting addition to a position group with a short-term job opening.
Sankey has played two seasons in Tennessee rushing 199 times for 762 yards and three TDs, while adding 32 receptions for 272 yards and one TD.
Sankey, a 2014 second round pick, will compete for a job as the Patriots 3rd-down back in Dion Lewis‘ immediate absence. James White, a 2014 fourth round pick, is the incumbent at the position. Rookie DJ Foster is hoping to compete for playing time, while Brandon Bolden could also see some reps although his primary role is on special teams.
