The New England Patriots received brutal injury news at Sunday morning's practice when undrafted free agent running back Lan Larison was not seen on the field. The UC Davis running back has been placed on injured reserve, according to Boston Herald's Doug Kyed.
Larison competed for a depth role in the Patriots' backfield behind Rhamondre Stevenson, rookie TreVeyon Henderson, and Antonio Gibson. However, he has had an outstanding training camp and put himself in a dark-horse position to make New England's 53-man roster.
The rookie running back continued his strong camp in Friday night's preseason opener against the Washington Commanders with seven carries for 35 yards and a touchdown.
