Summary

Jamaal Williams, the former NFL rushing touchdowns leader, worked out for the New England Patriots this week. Williams has not played in over a year, last appearing for the New Orleans Saints during the 2022 season. His workout comes as the Patriots evaluate their running back situation following an apparent injury to starter Rhamondre Stevenson during a recent game. Stevenson appeared to suffer a lower-body injury and did not return to the field after the play. The Patriots are currently ranked among the top rushing offenses with Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson contributing early in the season.
