FOXBORO, Mass. — Mike Gillislee is new to the New England Patriots’ organization, but the running back made his presence known early in the team’s regular-season opener Thursday night.
After the Patriots forced a turnover in Kansas City Chiefs territory, New England capitalized with a two-yard touchdown run courtesy of Gillislee, his first in a Patriots uniform and New England’s first of the 2017 season.
Gillislee is a part of a four-headed monster in the Patriots’ backfield, so fans might get used to seeing touchdown scampers from the impressive crew of backs.
