Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Dean Pees has revealed that he and his side are very wary of the dual threat of New England Patriots running back Shane Vereen.
The 24-year-old has rushed for 199 yards on 40 carries but has been more a problem for defenses in the passing game where he has 43 receptions for 381 yards and a touchdown.
Pees told reporters: "He is such a dynamic receiver out of the backfield. It is a little bit like last week in Detroit when you had Bush.
"The guy is a good runner. He is a very good runner. ... But he is [also] just a really good receiver, very fast, and he has been a weapon."
The Patriots and the Ravens clash at M&T Bank Stadium on Sunday.
