Patriots RB Brandon Bolden (thigh) is questionable for Week 7's game against the New York Jets after three limited practices.

Bolden has been used in the receiving game. His absence would open a role for J.J. Taylor to do more of the same.

Patriots RB Damien Harris checked out OK after yesterday’s game, source said.

Harris was limited with rib and chest injuries, but tests ruled out anything significant and he’s best described as day-to-day, Rapoport went on say. Harris carried 14 times for 58 yards and a TD but his status for Week 6 is still in doubt at this point. Stevenson carried 11 times for an unimpressive 23 yards, but would likely get the early-down carries if Harris can't go. Bolden caught four balls but for just six yards and looks to be the team's passing down back. It's possible Taylor could get back in the mix if Harris has to miss time.

Patriots RB James White suffered a subluxation of the hip during yesterday’s game, per me and Mike Giardi.

The injury knocks the key offensive player out indefinitely, according to Rapoport. White has been undergoing tests today, but an IR stint would make sense. White had 12 catches over the first two weeks for 94 yards before getting hurt Week 3. Bolden filled in in Week 3 but it's likely Taylor or Stevenson will see more of that role going forward.

Patriots running backs coach Ivan Fears said he feels confident running back Damien Harris will "step up to the plate" after his late-game fumble against the Dolphins. "We have not had a problem with him," Fears said.

There were stories Monday the Patriots were going limit Harris' workload as a result of his fumble. With Sony Michel now in LA, next up is rookie Stevenson, but Stevenson fumbled in the game as well and lost playing time, and the Patriots aren't loaded with safer options. So this is at least a good sign the team will continue to trust Harris. Harris now comes with some risk in Week 2 until we see his workload.

New England running back Brandon Bolden has decided to opt out, according to multiple reports.

All NFL players have the option to opt out of the season amid the COVID-19 pandemic. They will receive a stipend for living expenses in 2020 and then the 2020 season on their contracts will move to 2021. Bolden is deep down our draft board but is mostly a special teams player for the Patriots.
