Patriots Hope Newly Promoted Rookie Fixed This Preseason Issue

FOXBORO, Mass. — The New England Patriots on Thursday called up a member of their 2022 draft class, officially promoting running back Kevin Harris from the practice squad.

He’d better take care of the ball better than he did in his first NFL preseason.

That was head coach Bill Belichick’s public message to Harris after the Patriots added the sixth-round rookie to the 53-man roster, setting him up to potentially make his pro debut Sunday against the Cleveland Browns.

“He ran the ball well (this summer),” Belichick said in his Friday morning news conference.
