Summary

Running Back Rank: #48
Overall: #146

Vereen was fourth or fifth on the depth chart most of his rookie season, getting very little playing time. He was inactive most weeks. Vereen played five games and ran 15 times for 57 yards. He still has plenty of competition at running back but the Patriots aren't giving up on him yet. He could play a much bigger offensive role with a good offseason of work and a strong training camp. He'll compete for a change-of-pace role with the Patriots. Vereen is a big-play option at running back. He isn't a huge back, which hurts his chances to be an every-down back, but he has the speed and hands to excel as a third-down back.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Vereen will be hit or miss most weeks, but has some weekly upside for the big game if he starts getting consistent playing time. His total yardage numbers should be better this season. Expect about 400 total yards and a few scores. He is worth a look as a deep reserve for fantasy teams.

Notes

The New England Patriots still have high hopes for RB Shane Vereen even though he had limited playing time last season.

With free-agent RB BenJarvus Green-Ellis moving on to the Cincinnati Bengals, the New England Patriots lost the primary ground gainer from 2011. However, RBs Stevan Ridley and Shane Vereen showed glimpses of brilliance in their rookie seasons last year, and will see the focus of the running game shift to them in 2012.

Fantasy Impact: The youngsters should carry much of the load at running back for the Patriots going forward. Both have high upside for 2012.

New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick indicated RB Shane Vereen could see playing time with the offense in Week 12. Belichick said the more time Vereen sees on special teams the more he will see on offense.

Fantasy Impact: Vereen is a talented back and has made plays when given the chance but until he starts getting consistent work, don't bother with him in your lineup.

New England Patriots RB Shane Vereen posted 39 yards on eight carries with his first NFL touchdown in Week 11 against the Kansas City Chiefs Monday, Nov. 21. He was seeing playing time with due to a lopsided score.

Fantasy Impact: The only reason he got in the game is because it was out of hand. His value remains limited but he shows promise when he gets his touches, which is encouraging for the future.
