Sony Michel looks explosive in Week 3

Sony Michel (RB - FA)

Sony Michel rushed nine times for 117 yards and caught two passes for 23 yards in the Patriots' Week 3 win over the Raiders.

Fantasy Impact
Yes, you're reading that correctly. Michel did in fact catch his first two passes of the year. This was the third straight game in which he was held to 10 carries or less, however. The only difference today was that the third-year back out of Georgia actually looked explosive, ripping off a 48-yard scamper that was the longest of his career. Rex Burkhead and J.J. Taylor were plenty involved as well, which makes Michel a risky low-end FLEX in Week 4 against the Chiefs.
