Kiner's 8-touch, 51-yard late-game drive shows efficiency; Vrabel riding the hot hand.

Kiner received 8 consecutive touches for 51 yards (42 on runs) in a crucial late-game drive against the Jets in Week 6, averaging 5.3 yards per carry on the drive. Over his 31 total attempts this season, he has averaged 4.5 yards per run, demonstrating consistent efficiency. Head coach Mike Vrabel stated the team has 'three capable backs and you ride the hot hand,' with Kiner emerging as that hot hand. The source notes the Patriots may continue riding him, especially if he maintains ball security, ahead of a Thursday night game in Chicago.
