Patriots lose RB Dion Lewis for the year
The “passing back” role in the New England Patriots’ offense is vital, and Dion Lewis was filling it well prior to tearing his left ACL in the third quarter of Sunday’s win over the Washington Redskins.

An MRI performed Monday revealed the full extent of the running back’s injury.
New England Patriots cornerback Logan Ryan (26) intercepts a pass by Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins during the first half of an NFL football game, Sunday, November 8, 2015, in Foxborough, Mass. He ran for 234 yards on 49 carries and had 388 yards on 36 catches this season. We also know Travaris Cadet was on the roster for a while, and he or another free agent could be signed once Lewis is put on injured reserve. The Patriots soon after announced he would not return to the game. “Left a few things on the field that we could have executed a little bit better, but overall I thought it was a good job by everybody being ready to go”.
“He’s come through for us many times before like he did today, so that’s why he’s a valuable member of this team”, said Belichick. Lewis had just caught a pass from Tom Brady when he started weaving his way through the secondary. One area where he excelled was catching balls out of the backfield.
“Everybody practices like they’re a starter, like they’re going to be playing a hundred snaps every game”, said White, who has seven carries for 15 yards this season.
Still, even when we consider 2014’s production, White had a -0.30 Rushing NEP per play (nearly identical to 2015) and a 0.07 Reception NEP per play.
Starks carried just 10 times for 39 yards, but turned eight targets into six receptions for 83 yards and a touchdown in the loss to the Carolina Panthers.
This is a bad break for Lewis who, after four years was finally starting to become a real player in the league.
-T Marcus Cannon (toe) was inactive for the third straight game and has not practiced since suffering the injury in Week 6 at Indianapolis.

“It’s an unfortunate situation for [Lewis]”, said White, who was a healthy scratch Sunday. Josh Kline was the right guard.
