The Patriots will honor Kevin Faulk in halftime ceremonies on Sunday. Faulk, who retired this year after 13 years with the Pats, is the team's all-time leader in receptions by a running back, with 431. He is one of only 26 running backs in NFL history to reach the 400-reception plateau. In the 2000s decade, he was one of just six players to rush for more than 3,000 yards and gain over 3,000 yards receiving, joining Tiki Barber, Marshall Faulk, Michael Pittman, LaDanian Tomlinson and Brian Westbrook. A second-round pick (46th overall) out of LSU in 1999, Faulk is the Patriots all-time leader in all-purpose yards (12,349) and kickoff return yards (4,098) and is the Patriots' all-time leading return specialist, totaling 5,041 combined return yards (4,098 kick return yards and 943 punt return yards).

I love this. He deserves it. Although I still think of that 4th and 2 against the colts a few years ago every time his name comes up.
Gotta give him his props. He wasn't the workhorse, but you didn't want anyone else when you needed a first down. Great career and a Patriot legend.
