Yes. They love to run away either playfully or in your case, he might have other reasons, since he's a rescue. Does he know any commands? Maybe do some food or treat related games and training with him? It'll help to bond with him.
For my two, I never let the off leash even though they are decently well behaved. There's just too many other dangers that could arise. But IF I ever do in a safe environment, I let the run around with the leash still attracted to their harness. So if need be it's a lot easier to quickly grab the.
