Harvard RB accepts invite to Dolphins rookie minicamp

He’s also going to be at minicamp for the Chiefs.

As the 2023 NFL draft has come and gone, teams have added rookies to their rosters and are in the process of signing those who went undrafted.

For those who haven’t been given a contract, teams will offer tryout opportunities at their minicamps.

Last year, the Miami Dolphins hosted 14 tryout players for rookie minicamp, and this year, we’ve already seen an invite be accepted. According to The Draft Network’s Ryan Fowler, Harvard running back Aidan Borguet will attend, and he will also attend the camp hosted by the Kansas City Chiefs.

In Borguet’s 30 games with the Crimson, he rushed for 2,429 yards and 25 touchdowns on 5.9 yards per carry. He also added 133 yards and a score on 11 receptions. In his three years, he was a third-team All-Ivy selection (2019), second-team All-Ivy selection (2021) and first-team All-Ivy selection (2022).

Miami’s pretty set at running back, at this moment, with Raheem Mostert, Jeff Wilson, Myles Gaskin, Salvon Ahmed and Devon Achane on the roster. Borguet would have to wow coaches during minicamp to earn a contract.

Report: Patriots to have pre-draft visit with Ivy League RB

The Patriots might not be done addressing their running back depth.

The New England Patriots are continuing their pre-draft visits, and a newly-scheduled one has local ties. The organization is scheduled to visit with Harvard running back Aidan Borguet, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston.

Borguet was a key component of the Crimson’s rushing attack last season. He carried the ball 203 times for 1,170 yards and 10 touchdowns. He also made an impact in the passing game, recording six receptions for 62 yards and a touchdown. The New Jersey native had seven games of over 100 yards, including a 163-yard effort against Cornell back in October.

Running back depth is a focus for New England in this draft, and they have shown interest in some of the top running backs of this class. Adding depth could be important, following the departure of Damien Harris to the Buffalo Bills. They did address the position a bit, signing running back James Robinson, but a younger piece in the backfield could help New England at the position.

The NFL draft is set to begin in less than two weeks with the first round taking place on April 27.
