The New England Patriots are reportedly putting undrafted rookie running back Lan Larison on injured reserve, according to Boston Herald's Doug Kyed.
It's a tough break for the former UC Davis standout, who many viewed as a dark horse candidate to make the final 53-man roster. He was right in the mix as a depth option behind Rhamondre Stevenson, TreVeyon Henderson and Antonio Gibson.
In Friday's preseason opener, he had seven carries for 35 yards and a touchdown, averaging 5.0 yards per carry against the Washington Commanders. He also hauled in two receptions for nine yards in the game.
