Brandon Bolden

Pats Beat: Brandon Bolden could play big role

New England's run game might not lose much if Brandon Bolden can replicate his performance against Houston.

After Blount left in the second quarter Sunday, Bolden took over in the early-down role with James White remaining as the team's passing back.

Bolden has yet to start a game this season, but that could end Sunday.

"He's matured and grown in our system he's a dependable guy," offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels said Tuesday. "We trust him to blitz pick-up. We trust him to be in the game in those critical situations where you can get a lot of different looks in the defense. He studies hard."

The fourth-year back nearly doubled his season totals against Houston entering the game with 19 carries for 59 yards in 11 games. He finished Sunday with an additional 16 carries on 51 yards.

Bolden impressed head coach Bill Belichick against the Texans rushing for 11 yards on a third-and-8 at the end of the game to seal the win.

"The play he made at the end of the game last week against Houston was a really good play on his part," Belichick said.

Fantasy Impact: 

LeGarrette Blount (hip) was seen on crutches, according to reports, so his status for Week 15 is up in the air. Bolden is kind of a do-it-all back, but the team has never really stuck with him for any set role for a long period of time. The Pats could very well ride Bolden and White until Blount is able to come back so this situation is worth monitoring.

Danny Amendola

Danny Amendola, Aaron Dobson injured on MNF

Danny Amendola’s injury, which the team announced was to his knee, came late in the third quarter on running back James White's 6-yard touchdown run. He was coming off the left side of the line to block and didn’t make contact with anyone, but came up limping.

“When I saw him, it looked like he was in good spirits,” WR Brandon LaFell said. “I hope it’s nothing major. We’re going to need him soon.”

Amendola came on to return a punt after the Bills’ next drive went three-and-out, but came up hobbling again as he let the ball hit the ground and backed away from it.

He was seated on the bench for the remainder of the game after that, at one point talking with Bill Belichick during a timeout.

Aaron Dobson left in the second quarter with an ankle injury and didn’t return.

Fantasy Impact: 

Losing Amendola for any stretch of time would be a tough blow for the Patriots, who are already without No. 1 man Edelman (left foot) for the foreseeable future, and running back Dion Lewis. Amendola essentially stepped into Edelman’s role Monday and delivered with nine receptions for 117 yards, and the numbers could have spiked further if not for an unusual inadvertent whistle in the third quarter. He was charted on the field for 45 of 50 offensive snaps (including penalties) before hobbling off. Keshawn Martin became a popular name last week as a possible Edelman recplacement, and with both Amendola and Dobson now banged up, he could be thrust into a bigger role out of necessity. He was inactive for Week 11 and hasn't caught a pass since Week 6, which was the last time he was active.

Shane Vereen

McDaniels: Patriots RB James White will 'play a little bit more'

The guy who does the job Dion Lewis was doing is James White.

The second-year running back from Wisconsin has 16 carries and 12 catches in his career. He spent 2014 behind Shane Vereen and this year behind Lewis. He’s a player that’s smart, knows where he’s supposed to be, has natural hands and good speed. My gripe with his game is that he went down a little too easily as a rookie. He came back bulked up this year and showed glimpses of being able to run through contact a little more. He’ll also – once he gets some confidence – be able to show whether he can string moves together and be more elusive than he’s shown.

Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels is optimistic.

“James is a very consistent guy,” he explained. “He comes to work. He's got a great attitude and approach, is always prepared to go in and fulfill any of the roles that we have for our backs. He's a dependable guy. He can handle a lot of different assignments, and then when we've needed him to play this season, he's certainly been a guy who has done a decent job in blitz pickup. He's caught the football well out of the backfield, and then he's made yards with it when he's had it in his hands.

“James is a guy who continues to get better,” he added. “Hopefully his best football is in front of him. You know, he's still a young player, has only been in our system for a year and a half here I think. And going forward, whatever his role is, I'm sure James will be prepared, and will give our team everything he has. So I really like his approach and his mentality, and he's got a maturity about him that I really feel good about. He'll have an opportunity now to step in there and play a little bit more with Dion’s situation.”

Fantasy Impact: 

White figures to get most of Lewis's touches, but Blount is likely to see an uptick in carries as well. White is not the player that Lewis is, but he's able to adequately take over the role. Those owners hurting at running back -- especially in PPR formats -- shouldn't be afraid to bid some FAAB dollars on White this week.

LeGarrette Blount

Patriots RB Dion Lewis (abdomen, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 6. White’s return to practice on Friday is a good sign for his Week 6 availability, but the Patriots play on Sunday night, so owners may want to pick up James White (or better yet LeGarrette Blount, if he’s available) as insurance.
