Bolden, a rookie from the University of Mississippi, rushed for 137 yards against the Buffalo Bills in September, but has not played since October because of a knee injury.
Bolden joined teammate Aqib Talib on the sidelines for doping.
Cornerback Talib, recently acquired from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, has one more game to serve on his four-game suspension for violating rules governing performance enhancing substances.
The Patriots (5-3) host AFC East rival Buffalo (3-5) on Sunday.
