Since he\u2019s been MIA since June, it was seen as a positive sign. Now he\u2019s going to \u2026.at a minimum begin the season on PUP and perhaps even wind up on IR.<\/p>\n<p>This latest setback is expected to last 8-10 weeks which would put Lewis on the cusp of PUP and possibly landing on IR if he isn\u2019t ready by then.<\/p>\n<p>So what do the Patriots do in the meanwhile? Well, it immediately opens a spot on the 53-man roster. We had <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/P5FVxV4R5T\">already projected Lewis<\/a> to start the season on PUP so that part is no surprise. That opens a roster spot that we believe will go to\u2026right now Tyler Gaffney. It could also open the door for someone like Donald Brown or D.J. Foster to make the roster, but both have missed a ton of time.<\/p>\n<p>One thing is for sure now, and that is James White\u2019s spot now appears locked as he\u2019s now the best pass catching RB on the team. The Patriots depth chart currently consists of: LeGarrette Blount James White Brandon Bolden Tyler Gaffney Donald Brown Joey Iosefa and D.J. Foster.<\/p>\n<p>Blount, White, and Bolden appear to be roster locks. The remaining players will fight it out for the final spot. FB James Develin is a lock and could be listed here or with a separate category.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Work a Trade?<\/strong> The Patriots could be trying to work a trade or will wait and watch the waiver wire for a suitable pickup. This was something Paul Perillo of PFW said during the broadcast of the game on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>He mentioned the Titans and Bishop Sankey. He\u2019s got good size and is a Patriots type player and would be a good fit. Tennessee is loaded at the position with Derrick Henry, DeMarco Murray, Dexter McCluster, Antonio Andrews, David Cobb, Bishop Sankey and Devid Fluellen. Sankey could possibly be had at a bargain price with their depth.<\/p>\n<p>Other trading partners could be either Dallas or KC. The Cowboys just drafted Ezekiel Elliot, to go along with Alfred Morris, Darren McFadden, Lance Dunbar and sixth-round pick Darius Jackson. McFadden would be the obvious choice to get cut loose. Especially with the way Morris ran this week. Would Dallas and Jerry Jones look to help Kraft and the Patriots out? Hmmm.<\/p>\n<p>A more likely deal could be had with the Chiefs and Andy Reid. Knile Davis seems the odd man out in KC and he had an impressive playoff game against the Patriots a year ago, right up until his fumble.<\/p>\n<p>But regardless, the situation with the Patriots running backs and Lewis went from a wait-and-see to a position of need. It was hoped that Lewis would be back to start the season. Now the earliest that will happen looks to be early November.<\/p>\n<p><em>Follow me on Twitter\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SteveB7SFG\"><em>@SteveB7SFG<\/em><\/a><em>\u00a0or email me at\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/patspub.patsfans.com\/stevebpatsfans@gmail.com\"><em>stevebpatsfans@gmail.com<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Listen to our\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blogtalkradio.com\/patriotsfourthandtwo\"><em>Patriots 4<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0and 2<\/em><\/a><em>\u00a0podcasts on blog talk radio as the writers Russ Goldman, Derek Havens and I from\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.patsfans.com\/\"><em>PatsFans.com<\/em><\/a><em>\u00a0discuss the latest Patriots news Wednesdays at 12 noon.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just after he walked thru the locker room with no noticeable limp, it was learned that Patriots\u2019 running back Dion Lewis will undergo \u201cclean-up\u201d surgery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":2725,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[11,10],"tags":[799,48,34,695,216,1035,385,204,934,78,711,758,24,44,70,8,713,816],"class_list":["post-7509","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-patriots-commentary","category-patriots-news","tag-2016-patriots-roster","tag-53-man-roster-projection","tag-bill-belichick","tag-bishop-sankey","tag-brandon-bolden","tag-d-j-foster","tag-darren-mcfadden","tag-dion-lewis","tag-donald-brown","tag-james-white","tag-joey-iosefa","tag-knile-davis","tag-lagarrette-blount","tag-new-england-patriots","tag-nfl","tag-patriots","tag-patriots-running-backs","tag-tyler-gaffney"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.6 (Yoast SEO v27.6) -
