JaMycal Hasty

Gibson now has five or fewer touches in five straight games. Even with Drake Maye enhancing the Patriots' overall offensive outlook, contingency back Gibson isn't coming close to standalone value behind workhorse starter Rhamondre Stevenson, and is even splitting some of the change-of-pace work with JaMycal Hasty. He's waiver wire fodder.

Hasty was the Patriots' second running back into the game after Rhamondre Stevenson. He totaled seven touches for 24 yards in a game where the Pats ran more than they threw. Hasty is the team's pass-catching back, though not much of that skillset was needed against the Bears. While Hasty is more the complementary back to Stevenson, Antonio Gibson is more of the direct backup, rushing five times for 26 yards; Gibson carried the ball mostly in the closing minutes of the game.
