3 years agoHouston Texans running back Rex Burkhead gets a tough matchup in Week 13. The Texans have an implied total of just 17.75 points and are 10-point underdogs facing the Indianapolis Colts. Furthermore, the Colts represent one of the top run defenses in the league. Burkhead's role has taken a step forward in recent weeks, but he's still splitting time with David Johnson, and this is one of the worst matchups imaginable. He's an emergency RB3/flex this week. However, if Johnson misses this week due to a thigh injury and an illness, then Burkhead becomes a solid RB2, even in a bad matchup.--Jacob Taylor
