Patriots running back Brandon Bolden got the early work out of the backfield Sunday at Houston with Stevan Ridley a healthy scratch. However, Bolden hardly made an impact in a 34-31 win Week 13.
Bolden got the first carry of the game for New England and had three carries on the first two drives, but he would touch the ball just one more time as LeGarrette Blount and Shane Vereen got most of the work the rest of the way.
Bolden finished with just three carries for 2 yards and had one catch for 18 yards. The Patriots host the Browns Week 14.
