Fantasy Impact:

Burkhead exited Sunday’s loss to the Texans early with a knee injury, and the Patriots fear he tore his ACL. The 30-year-old RB will undergo an MRI to confirm. Burkhead is most likely done for the year and he will rehab during the off-season to be ready for the 2021 campaign. Look for Damien Harris, Sony Michel and James White to lead the Patriots backfield while Burkhead is sidelined.
