Description: Patriots running back Brandon Bolden has been suspended four games for violating the league's policy on performance enhancing substances, according to Paul Perillo of Patriots Football Weekly.
Insight: Bolden hasn't practiced since he suffered a knee injury in Week 6. Shane Vereen has benefited most from Bolden's absence and that should continue.

Description: Patriots running back Brandon Bolden won't be available for Sunday's game against the Jets. He's dealing with a knee injury.
Insight: That should free up more carries for Stevan Ridley but as we've learned in the past, you can never really trust Bill Belichick.

Description: New England tailback Brandon Bolden (knee) didn't practice again Thursday and will likely miss Sunday's game against the Jets.
Insight: The absence of Bolden would mean a heavier workload for Stevan Ridley, though Danny Woodhead could also play a role if New England runs a lot of plays from its third down formations.

Description: New England tailback Brandon Bolden was removed from Sunday's game in Seattle after suffering a knee injury.

Description: After a stunning performance against Buffalo in Week 4, Patriots running back Brandon Bolden is questionable for Sunday's game versus Denver because of a knee injury.
Insight: Bolden hasn't missed practice all week so we're guessing this is just another one of Bill Belichick's famous macho head games. Ignore the questionable listing and plan to use Bolden as you normally would Sunday when the Broncos come to town.

Description: Patriots halfback Brandon Bolden surprised fantasy owners with a breakout game in Week 4 against Buffalo. He finished the afternoon with 137 yards and a touchdown on 16 carries.
Insight: Five-foot-11, 220-pound undrafted running back out of Ole Miss ... sound familiar? Bolden is like a BenJarvus Green-Ellis clone. There's no way the Patriots will be able to run this efficiently every week but if Bolden can turn in a few more efforts like this, he'll certainly begin to warrant some fantasy consideration.
