Patriots Elevate Running Back From Practice Squad For Chiefs Game

With Rhamondre Stevenson still on the mend, the Patriots added some extra backfield depth for Sunday’s matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs.

New England on Saturday elevated second-year running back Kevin Harris from the practice squad for its Week 15 contest at Gillette Stadium.

It’s the second consecutive elevation for Harris, whom the Patriots selected in the sixth round of the 2022 NFL Draft. The South Carolina product also was added to the gameday roster for last week’s win over the Pittsburgh Steelers but did not play a snap in that game.

Harris saw action in five games as a rookie last season, carrying 18 times for 52 yards and one touchdown in a reserve role.
