News: 18 minutes agoGibson rushed five times for 29 yards and secured all three targets for eight yards in the Patriots' 24-3 loss to the Jets on Thursday night.

Spin: Gibson logged one fewer carry than Rhamondre Stevenson but outgained him by six rushing yards. Gibson was also the only one of the two involved in the passing game, albeit to a modest degree. Gibson's downturn was notable considering he'd posted 96 rushing yards just four days earlier against Seattle, but the entire offensive environment for New England was depressed Thursday night. Gibson will look to bounce back in a Week 4 road battle against the 49ers on Sunday, Sept. 29.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Gibson enters his fifth season in the league, but his first with the Patriots. With new head coach Jerod Mayo and offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt, New England aims to revitalize a running game that ranked 25th in rushing yards per game last season. While Rhamondre Stevenson is expected to continue as the starter, Gibson will likely serve as a change-of-pace option and contribute on passing downs in the Patriots' committee approach. Gibson is worth considering in the double-digit rounds of your fantasy draft as an RB4.
