BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 19% of leagues
ANALYSIS: The New England Patriots continue to offer frustration for fantasy football owners. Whether you own James White or Sony Michel, there’s a good chance that you never truly feel comfortable with starting them week in and week out. Rex Burkhead will continue to be someone that is a borderline waiver wire player. You may have already owned him and dropped him or he’s been drafted and is now on the waiver wire. With bye weeks in full effect, now is a great time to stash Burkhead and cover yourself for when you need someone to fill in.
Burkhead has been dealing with a foot issue and has been sidelined since Week 4 against the Bills. Burkhead has seen limited action this year, but has a career-high 4.67 YPC racked up on just 24 carries this year. He has found the end zone in his three full games that he’s been active. Don’t pick up Burkhead and expect to use him immediately, but he won’t be a bad option as someone to put in your Flex spot when the bye weeks start to hit your team.
