Apparently former Panthers 2014 6th round pick Tyler Gaffney broke off a 44 yard TD in the preseason for the Patriots. 

Quote

Some background: The running back was drafted by the Carolina Panthers in 2014 but tore his meniscus before training camp and was waived with the intention of being placed on injured reserve. Bill Belichick wagged his finger like Dikembe Mutombo and blocked Gaffney from hitting IR by claiming him and storing him on the Patriots’ 90-man roster throughout the summer of 2014 before placing him on injured reserve when he no longer had to pass through waivers.

Oh Belichick. Wonder if Gaffney had stayed healthy what the RB room would look like right now.

    • Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.     
    • This post was an error. Oops and sorry for the errors in the previous one. Too slow to edit.   We’ll see what they do.  
    • I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
