Two players are set to see action in New England's season opener, a shift fans will notice on the field. The move follows the decision to list veteran running back TreVeyon Henderson as inactive, prompting the squad change.
Yahoo Sports, Pats Pulpit, Boston Herald and the team's official site all confirmed the elevations. Coverage notes that the roster tweak aims to bolster depth at running back and preserve flexibility for the opening contest.
With the Seahawks fielding a potent offense, observers will watch whether Larison can translate practice‑squad form into productive snaps. How the pair’s inclusion shapes New England’s early rhythm remains an open question.
