Rushawn Baker Signed to Patriots Practice Squad Amidst Backfield Concerns

Running back Rushawn Baker was signed to the New England Patriots' practice squad on Tuesday. This move comes as the team faces potential concerns in their backfield, particularly with starting running back Rhamondre Stevenson dealing with a toe injury that kept him out of Wednesday's practice. Baker's addition provides depth and flexibility for the Patriots as they prepare for their upcoming Week 9 matchup against Atlanta.
