6 years agoNew England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead carried the ball six times for only 22 yards in the Patriots Week 2 loss in Jacksonville. Burkhead was limited in practice this week because of a concussion and was not a guarantee to suit up. He did have a nice 12-yard run in the game but mostly was ineffective and was the third wheel behind Sony Michel and James White in the backfield. The healthier Burkhead gets the more snaps he will see moving forward and will have a better matchup in Week 3 against the Lions.--Joey C - RotoBaller
