Reports: Patriots RB Antonio Gibson Out for Season with Torn ACL
Antonio Gibson's season ends after ACL tear on kickoff return, forcing Patriots to rely on Rhamondre Stevenson and rookie TreVeyon Henderson for rushing and returns.
- Antonio Gibson, the Patriots' running back, will be sidelined for the rest of the season after tearing his ACL during New England’s 23-20 victory over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday night.
- Gibson sustained the injury in the second quarter on a kick return when he was hit in the knee, according to multiple reports and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
- Before the injury, Gibson was the third member of New England's three-man running back rotation, contributing 25 carries for 106 rushing yards, one touchdown, and 12 kick returns this season.
- Fellow running backs Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson will see increased roles, though Stevenson has fumbled three times in five games and Henderson has 121 rushing yards on 32 carries.
- With only Stevenson and Henderson left on the active roster, the Patriots will likely need to add another running back promptly.
