The New England Patriots are acquiring running back Corey Kiner from the Arizona Cardinals in exchange for a seventh-round pick in the 2028 NFL Draft, his agents told ESPN on Saturday.

Kiner, 24, is being projected as the Patriots' third back on the depth chart, behind Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson.

Listed at 5-foot-9 and 210 pounds, Kiner had 12 carries for 58 yards and two catches for 15 yards while playing in the final four games of his rookie season for the Cardinals in 2025.
