""Reggie can do it all. He's a tenacious run blocker, he can carry the ball, he can catch the ball out of the backfield, and then when he has the ball in his hands, he can do something with it. He can make people miss and do some nice things with the ball in his hands.""
""I'm just happy to see that he made it to New England and I think New England made a great choice. He's a great fullback.""
""I'm happy that Reggie found a new home. I'm very biased, but I think the Patriots offense runs at its best when there's a fullback involved.""
""Being able to run two-back runs, it declares you as a tough football team and that's something Josh wants to be.""
James Develin supports the New England Patriots' signing of Reggie Gilliam as a fullback. Develin praises Gilliam's versatility as a run blocker and ball carrier. With offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels returning, the Patriots are expected to increase their use of fullbacks in formations. Last season, they utilized 21-personnel on 15.3 percent of snaps. Gilliam's addition could enhance the team's physical offensive identity, aligning with McDaniels' successful history of using fullbacks effectively.
