The New England Patriots are adding to their running back depth after losing Antonio Gibson for the season.
On Tuesday, ESPN’s Mike Reiss reported that New England had signed a new RB to their practice squad: Jashaun Corbin.
Corbin, a versatile running back from Florida State, entered the NFL undrafted in 2022 after a college career yielding 1,771 rushing yards, 14 touchdowns, and 60 receptions for 360 yards. He signed with the New York Giants as a free agent but was released during final cuts, only to rejoin their practice squad days later.
In January 2023, Corbin inked a reserve/future contract with New York. His NFL debut came that season, appearing in six games primarily on special teams (117 snaps), with limited offensive touches: three receptions for 12 yards and one carry. Elevated for the Wild Card playoff against Minnesota, he remained inactive.
Waived/injured in August 2023, Corbin missed the 2024 season. He resurfaced in the UFL with the San Antonio Brahmas, leading the league in rushing yards in 2025. On June 17, 2025, the Atlanta Falcons signed him, positioning the 24-year-old as depth behind Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier, leveraging his return skills and burst. He was waived by Atlanta on August 26.
The Patriots are set to take on the New Orleans Saints on the road in Week 6. New England is now 3-2 on the season after a tremendous win in Week 5 over the Buffalo Bills.
