Antonio Gibson Won't Take Part in Friday's Scrimmage

Friday, August 1, 5:31 PM

Phil Perry of NBC Sports Boston reports that New England Patriots running back Antonio Gibson (undisclosed) will sit out of Friday's scrimmage due to an undisclosed injury. Gibson also did not take part in the team's walk-through practice at training camp on Thursday. It's unclear what is ailing the 27-year-old, but it's likely that the Patriots are just being cautious. As things currently stand, Gibson is going to go undrafted in most fantasy leagues after the Patriots took RB TreVeyon Henderson in the second round back in April. Although Rhamondre Stevenson has his issues with ball security, he will remain ahead of Gibson on the depth chart in 2025 as long as he stays healthy. In his first year in New England in 2024, Gibson had 120 carries for 538 yards and one touchdown, adding a career-low 23 receptions for 206 yards through the air in 17 games (three starts).

Isaac Guerendo Taking Part in OTAs

Friday, June 6, 12:54 PM

San Francisco 49ers running back Isaac Guerendo (ankle, knee) has been taking part in voluntary organized team activities this spring after injuring his MCL and spraining his ankle in the Week 18 regular-season finale last year. Guerendo, a fourth-round pick (129th overall) in 2024, should be a full-go for the start of mandatory minicamp on June 10. All-Pro Christian McCaffrey (knee) is also back and ready to roll after missing the majority of the 2024 campaign, so Guerendo will enter the 2025 season as the backup, but Jordan Mason was traded to the Minnesota Vikings and Elijah Mitchell left in free agency. The 24-year-old Guerendo had 5.0 yards per carry on his 84 rushing attempts last year for 420 yards and four touchdowns in 16 games (three starts), adding 15 catches for 152 yards through the air. Consider him a high-upside handcuff behind the injury-prone CMC.
