Damien Harris should challenge Rex Burkhead for offensive role

It is safe to say that the running back position is a very fruitful position for the New England Patriots. When you look at the position, there are many names available. Sony Michel, James White, Rex Burkhead and James Develin comprise the first unit. Damien Harris, Brandon Bolden, Dan Vitale and Jakob Johnson make up the second unit.

Harris, a 2019 third-round pick, did not see a ton of playing time last season. The Alabama product only carried the ball four times for 12 yards. As far as the top running back group goes, should Harris get a bigger role in 2020?
