Kevin inherited the New England Patriots RB room from Leonard Russell (1991β1993), and handed it to Sam Gash (1992β1997).
The room is reconstructed from arrival order among durable members (β₯4 seasons with the club) at the playerβs position group β a lineage by arrival, not a week-by-week depth chart. Distinct from the league-wide positional GOAT torch.
