Brandon Bolden's special teams play ignites Patriots.

On Sunday night, the scintillating special teams play continued with Brandon Bolden, last seen invading the running back rotation with a nifty touchdown run in Green Bay, blocking a Mike Scifres punt at the Chargers' 28 yard line to set up the Pats' first touchdown. The Pats were out of sorts at that point following a fumble by Brandon LaFell that was returned for a TD and having to settle for field goals on two red zone trips. But Bolden's play ignited the Pats, whose defensive awakening coincided almost directly with that play. (Boston.com)

Fantasy Impact:

Last week against the Packers, Brandon Bolden had some early carries at running back and did well with his opportunities with a TD run. This week against San Diego, Bolden played just one snap on offense. Bolden has really become a huge contributor on special teams and has carved out a role on them. But he is an afterthought in the running game at this time and should not be owned.
