Rookie Patriots running back Sony Michel just had one hell of a season.
After finishing the regular season with 931 rushing yards, 50 receiving yards, and six touchdowns, Michel enjoyed one of the most productive postseasons for a Patriots running back in NFL history. Across three straight wins, he racked up 336 yards on 71 attempts with an additional six touchdowns, finishing the playoffs with a rushing average of 4.7 yards per attempt.
And if all that weren’t impressive enough, he also set the league record for most playoff rushing touchdowns by a rookie back – and he did it in the AFC Championship Game.
