Veteran running back signed by the Patriots to compete for the RB3 role alongside Jam Miller, JaMycal Hasty, and Lan Larison. Head coach Mike Vrabel indicated it is "probably too early to tell" on Haskins' fit, noting the team "just got them yesterday to be able to get them ready for the game." Vrabel acknowledged Haskins' experience from his time in Tennessee and described him as "probably two different style of backs" compared to JaMycal Hasty, suggesting the team will evaluate both veterans as potential depth options behind Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson.
