New England Patriots RB Brandon Bolden (foot) has sat out of OTAs thus far due to a foot injury. He's no longer wearing a walking boot, but it's unclear if he'll practice before the end of minicamp.

New England Patriots RB Brandon Bolden (undisclosed) wasn't on the practice field Tuesday, May 21, because he's still rehabbing from an unrevealed ailment. He's taking part in their offseason program, though.
Fantasy Tip: Of course, this is a crowded backfield once again behind Stevan Ridley. The shifty Shane Vereen and bashing LeGarrette Blount complicate the amount of touches Bolden will receive this year. New England has the depth to avoid rushing back Bolden, and he won't be worthy of a pick in most, if not all, fantasy football drafts unless some dominoes fall.

New England Patriots RB Stevan Ridley is projected as the starting two-down running back, with RB Brandon Bolden and LeGarrette Blount challenging for the top spot. RB Shane Vereen is projected as the team's third-down back, with newcomer RB Leon Washington challenging for the job.

Wed, 19 Dec 2012 14:06:00 -0800
New England Patriots RB Stevan Ridley was on the field for only 19 of 96 offensive snaps in Week 15, but that was mainly due to the fact that New England was down multiple scores and RB Danny Woodhead was the better option with the team needing to pass more often. RB Shane Vereen was on the field for only one play in the second quarter, fumbled, and was benched. RB Brandon Bolden has been used strictly on special teams since he returned from injury.
