Blount's roster spot in jeopardy?
Missed spring practices due to hip injury

| Veteran whose job is in jeopardy: Running back LeGarrette Blount's return from a season-ending hip injury, suffered in December, bears watching as it relates to his roster status. Blount, who signed a modest one-year deal as a free agent to return in 2016, didn't practice in the spring. If he returns to full health and runs hard like he did at times in 2015, there shouldn't be any issues. But that isn't a given based on the present snapshot. (ESPN)
FFToday's Take: The Patriots have little depth behind Dion Lewis and Blount and Lewis is only seven months removed from his ACL injury. If Blount's hip doesn't respond well during camp, the Pats could make a move for a free agent running back.
