  "account": "Veteran running back Hassan Haskins was released by the New England Patriots just three weeks after joining the team. The move came shortly after the Patriots traded for Corey Kiner from the Arizona Cardinals in exchange for a seventh-round draft pick. Kiner's addition created a roster squeeze, leading to Haskins' release as the odd man out. Haskins, a former Michigan star, appeared in all three preseason games and rushed for 59 yards on 15 attempts. The trade leaves Kiner competing for the third running back spot behind Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson.",
