1:20 p.m. ET: New England Patriots 2014 fourth-round pick James White has a chance to break out Sunday against the New York Giants.

Dion Lewis tore his ACL last Sunday, so the Patriots must decide between White and Brandon Bolden to fill their always-important third-down pass-catching role. White likely will get the first crack at the role, since Bolden's biggest value to the team comes as a core four special teamer.

White has just 16 career carries for 53 yards with 12 catches for 75 yards. He's shown off dependable hands and blocking ability, though he's not as explosive or versatile as Lewis.

This is why the Patriots drafted Lewis last season, however, and we'll see if he can impress with the opportunity.
