Updating a previous story, New England Patriots RB Sony Michel (foot) passed his physical Wednesday, Aug. 26.
Footballguys View: Michel is back at practice for the Patriots and working to be their lead back. If healthy, Michel could get a starter’s workload but the Patriots will still use other backs in a rotation. Damien Harris has been a standout player in training camp and could be a solid starter if Michel has to miss time. Perhaps the second-year pro will steal some snaps here and there away from Michel in 2020.
