Lan Larison - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Makes impact as receiver Thursday Larison gained just one yard on seven carries in Thursday's 13-13 preseason tie with the Colts, but he caught six of eight targets for 38 yards.

Impact The undrafted running back out of UC Davis couldn't get anything going on the ground, but Larison's pass-catching chops stood out -- no other Patriot had more than three receptions on the night. His opportunities came with both TreVeyon Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson getting the night off, but the performance may have boosted Larison's chances of beginning the season in the RB3 role. He has yet to make his NFL debut after spending his rookie season in 2025 on the IR due to foot surgery.

Lead candidate for No. 3 role Larison has entered the competition for the No. 3 running back role in the Patriots' offense, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The Patriots' split-back system comprises Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson, with Terrell Jennings (undisclosed) being the leader for the primary depth role before being placed on injured reserve Thursday. Jennings' misfortune gives Larison a new chance at the 53-man roster, with the running back already reportedly leading the second-team offense while Jennings was getting select reps with the first-team. Larison's primary competition for the role will be Jam Miller, Hassan Haskins and JaMycal Hasty.

Works with second-team Larison led the second-team offense Wednesday, Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports.

Impact It seems that Terrell Jennings has the early lead for the No. 3 running back position, but Larison might be his closest competition. While Jennings took snaps with the first-team offense Wednesday, Larison led the second. There could be a situation in the future where Larison earns the right to test the first-team waters behind Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson.

In camp competition vs. rookies Larison is battling rookies Jam Miller and Myles Montgomery for the third spot on the Patriots' running back depth chart, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Impact Larison looks like the early favorite for the third spot behind Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson, but Miller and Montgomery will have opportunities to strengthen their cases for roster spots throughout training camp and the preseason. Lazar notes that Larison, Miller and Montgomery have all gotten opportunities on kickoff returns early in training camp. Special-teams ability could be the deciding factor for which running back earns a roster spot since Stevenson and Henderson are expected to monopolize opportunities on offense if healthy.

Making push for No. 3 RB slot Larison appears to the early leader to serve as the Patriots' No. 3 running back behind Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson, Evan Lazar of the team's official site reports.

Impact Also in the mix for slotting behind the top duo are Terrell Jennings (undisclosed), Jam Miller and Myles Montgomery, but after spending the entire 2025 campaign on IR due to a foot injury, Larison is making a push to claim a complementary backfield role ahead of Week 1. In any case, the back who emerges as New England's No. 3 option has modest fantasy upside as long as Stevenson and Henderson are healthy.

Vying for RB3 spot in New England Larison and Terrell Jennings are set to battle for the third spot on the Patriots' running back depth chart in training camp, Christopher Price of the Boston Globe reports.

Impact Larison signed with the Patriots as an undrafted free agent out of UC Davis prior to the 2025 season but injured his foot during the preseason and spent the entire campaign on IR. Now that he's healthy, Larison will try to earn a roster spot in a depth role behind TreVeyon Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson. Jam Miller and Myles Montgomery are also vying for roles in New England's running back room.

Impact The running back suffered a season-ending foot injury during an August preseason game last year, but he appears to be healthy now. In fact, Larison seems to be leading the competition for the third running back spot behind Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson, per Weller. Jam Miller, Myles Montgomery and Terrell Jennings are also part of that competition.

Impact Larison suffered the injury during his two-yard touchdown run at the 3:25 mark in the fourth quarter of Friday's preseason win over the Commanders. He was seen in a walking boot after the game, and after undergoing further tests, the undrafted rookie out of UC Davis will miss the entire 2025 season. The Patriots signed running back Deneric Prince to the roster in a corresponding move.

Seen with walking boot Larison was spotted wearing a walking boot following the Patriots' 48-18 preseason win over the Commanders on Friday, Michael Giardi of BostonSportsJournal.com reports.

Impact Larison went back to the locker room shortly after scoring the Patriots' final touchdown of the game at the 3:25 mark in the fourth quarter, per Zack Cox of the Boston Herald. The walking boot might be a precautionary measure and he'll undergo further tests to determine the severity of the injury, but the undrafted rookie is in danger of missing the Patriots' second preseason contest against the Vikings on Saturday, Aug. 16. Larison finished Friday's game with seven carries for 35 yards and two catches on as many targets for nine yards.

Expected to sign with Patriots Larison is slated to sign with the Patriots as an undrafted free agent, Mark Daniels of MassLive.com reports.

Impact Larison did it all at UC Davis in 2024, setting a school record with 2,387 all-purpose yards, including 1,465 on the ground and 874 as a receiver. He scored 17 rushing touchdowns and added six receiving scores, but those contributions weren't enough to attract the attention of any NFL front offices during the 2025 NFL Draft. Assuming his signing with New England is made official, Larison will compete for a roster spot in a backfield that added 2025 second-round draft pick TreVeyon Henderson to incumbent veterans Rhamondre Stevenson and Antonio Gibson.
