James White dominates backfield touches in Week 2
by Mark Leipold | Sun, Sep 16th 8:04pm EDT
James White totaled 11 yards on four carries, but caught seven of his eight targets for 73 yards in the Patriots' Week 2 loss to the Jaguars.
Fantasy Impact:
With Rex Brukhead and Sony Michel both active, but on the recovery trail from injury, and the Patriots in a negative game script most of the day, it's no surprise that James White led the backfield. This won't be the case every week, so treat White as a volatile flex play who will be used less in positive game scripts. He's much better in PPR leagues than non-PPR leagues. Keep an eye on Burkhead and Michel's status for next week before making any decisions.
