Could New England Patriots running back Sony Michel miss the first half of the 2020 season? One NFL analyst thinks so. Former Patriots executive Michael Lombardi predicted that Michel would stay on the physically unable to perform list throughout the summer.
Michel had foot surgery this offseason, and ankle and knee injuries are nothing new to him. If he were to stay on the PUP list, he would have to miss the first six weeks of the season.
New England has depth at the position, and added to it this week with Lamar Miller. Damien Harris, James White, JJ Taylor, and Rex Burkhead also figure to be part of the equation at running back.
