College career
Bolden, the Rebels' fellow running back, was more regarded as a recruit by his sophomore year, although Enrique Davis had been playing for the Rebels as a starter. He had 129 passes for 614 yards and four touchdowns in the 2009 season. Bolden averaged almost six yards per carry in the 2010 season. Bolden suffered a broken ankle against BYU in the first game of the 2011 season. Despite the fact that the injury was minor and he only missed a few games, he never recovered to his previous form. He had 96 passes for 472 yards and four touchdowns in the 2011 season. He was not chosen in the 2012 NFL Draft, but several outlets predicted that he would be drafted in one of the later rounds. Despite the fact that Bleacher Report announced on April 30, 2012 that he had agreed to a free agent deal with the Washington Redskins, Bolden later tweeted that the report was inaccurate. On May 2, 2012, a New York Times blog announced that he had signed a free agent contract with the New England Patriots.
Professional career
Bolden had 36 passes for 128 yards and four passes during the 2012 season, but he lost twice. Nonetheless, the New England Patriots decided to keep Bolden on their 53-man roster rather than attempting to put him on their practice squad at the end of training camp. In Week 3 of the Patriots' loss to the Baltimore Ravens, he scored his first touchdown; in Week 4, he led the Patriots with 137 yards on 16 attempts—an average of 8.6 yards per carry. He had one touchdown and an 11-yard reception. He and Stevan Ridley, who had 106 yards on 22 attempts with two touchdowns, became the first Patriots running backs to reach 100 yards in the same game since 1982. In addition, Wes Welker and Rob Gronkowski had 100-yard games on the day as well, making the four only the second such trio of two 100-yard rushers and two 100-yard receivers in a single game for the same team. Bolden was named as the NFL's FedEx Ground Player of the Week for Week 4 for his efforts. Bolden was suspended four games for breaching the NFL's policy against performance-enhancing drugs on November 9, 2012. He finished the 2012 season with 56 passes for 274 yards and two touchdowns. Bolden was active for 12 of the Patriots' games in 2013 and finished the year with 271 rushing yards, 3 running touchdowns, and 4.9 yards per carry; he also had 152 receiving yards.
