MINNEAPOLIS — Corey Clement caused a stir in the Philadelphia Eagles’ 41-33 victory over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LII on Sunday night.

The rookie running back from the University of Wisconsin hauled in a 22-yard touchdown pass from Nick Foles to put Philadelphia up 29-19 with ...

If a certain transcendent quarterback and a certain incomparable head coach could somehow be removed from the Super Bowl LII equation, then the Philadelphia Eagles could be plugged in as the better team heading into this game.

But Tom Brady and Bill Belichick intend to show up on Sunday ...

The Patriots needed only two more yards to become world champions, and they asked James White to get them.

Tom Brady, who had directed four consecutive scoring drives to rally New England out of a 28-3 deficit and into the first overtime in Super Bowl history, barked out the play call in ...

Foxborough, Mass. — First, the Patriots tuned out a week full of off-field drama. Then, they silenced the Titans to earn yet another trip to the AFC championship game.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. - Tom Brady passed for three touchdowns and 337 yards, and the New England Patriots cruised past the Tennessee Titans 35-14 on Saturday night to advance to their seventh consecutive American Football Conference championship game.

What a Sunday is was for Wisconsin Badgers alumni running backs.

FOXBORO — The Patriots are utilizing James White unlike any running back in the history of the NFL.

White is on pace this season to catch 92 passes for 736 yards and carry 64 times for 243 yards. If that holds up, he’d be the first back to ever catch at least 89 passes while running the ...

Chris Hogan caught his fifth touchdown Thursday night in the Patriots’ 19-14 win in Tampa, setting a new career high and tying Jordy Nelson for the NFL lead.

Hogan wrestled (or is it rugby’ed?) away the team target lead from James White (37-to-35) and has at least one touchdown in four ...

NEW ORLEANS — With an increasingly dire situation at wide receiver, the Patriots had no choice but to heap more responsibility upon their deep cast of running backs Sunday during their 36-20 victory against the Saints.

FOXBORO — For Patriots opponents, their best defense might be a sloppy offense.

Tom Brady and his cast of dominant weapons have the makings of a group that could score the most points in a single season in NFL history. They might be perfectly indefensible.

That is, of course, if they ...

Rob Gronkowski never needs a party invitation.

He is the party.

And Gronk has crashed 2017.

He took zero snaps in Super Bowl LI as Tom Brady and the rest of the Patriots completed the greatest comeback since Kevin Millar said “don’t let us win today” before Game 4 of the 2004 ...

INDIANAPOLIS — There’s a prestigious group of running backs up for grabs this offseason.

But for the Patriots to acquire one, they’ll have to divert from their standard plan at the position. Florida State’s Dalvin Cook, LSU’s Leonard Fournette and Stanford’s Christian McCaffrey could all ...

A look at the Patriots’ fourth-round picks since 2010:

Player Year selected Note

Aaron Hernandez 2010 On-field production dwarfed by conviction in 2013 murder case.

Super Bowl LI ended when James White notched his third touchdown -- which gave him 20 points in the game -- to cement a wild 34-28 comeback win over the Falcons.

Six minutes and 32 seconds earlier (in football time), the Patriots were ...

Tom Brady led the New England Patriots to the biggest comeback in Super Bowl history, overcoming a 25-point deficit in a 34-28 overtime victory over Atlanta in a game heard on Newstalk WJAG 105.9 FM. Brady won the game’s MVP award after throwing 62 passes for 466 yards, both Super Bowl records. ...

HOUSTON — So you’re a Patriots fan, which means the last frantic moments of Super Bowl LI last night at NRG Stadium turned your insides into mush. You were pulling your hair, pacing the room, climbing the walls, falling to the floor .?.?. writhing.

Which, when you get right down to it, is ...

SCORE ALERT: The New England Patriots have wiped out a 28-3 deficit to force the first overtime in Super Bowl history against the Atlanta Falcons.

HOUSTON — Patriots running backs Dion Lewis and James White are cognizant of the past as it relates to the present.

Kevin Faulk, Danny Woodhead and Shane Vereen have all had big-time Super Bowl performances, and the current tandem of passing-down backs could be next. There’s no denying ...

FOXBORO — Maybe now, Los Angeles Rams coach Jeff Fisher will have a greater working knowledge of the Patriots’ offensive backfield.

Fisher already knew LeGarrette Blount, though that didn’t seem to help the cause as the bulldozer rushed 18 times for 88 yards, including a 43-yard touchdown ...

FOXBORO – The likely imminent return of running back Dion Lewis from the physically unable to perform list, maybe even as soon as the Patriots’ game against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, could mean a cut in playing time and touches for third-year running back James White.

But White ...

FOXBORO — Just when an opposing defense thinks it might have a handle on stopping the Patriots’ biggest weapons, be it Rob Gronkowski, Martellus Bennett, Julian Edelman or Chris Hogan, that’s when Tom Brady goes to the back-breaker.

At least, that’s the sense you get when Brady hits ...

FOXBORO — The Patriots plugged in a little more depth at running back yesterday by signing former Titans running back Bishop Sankey to their practice squad.

Sankey, a 2014 second-round pick, was low man on the Titans depth chart this year behind newly acquired DeMarco Murray and ...

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — The real fun soon begins for the Patriots, but not before one final preseason dance with the Giants at MetLife Stadium.

The Pats will try to cap off a perfect preseason for the fourth time in franchise history and the second time under Bill Belichick (2003). Since ...
