Fantasy Football Player Notes

Breece Hall is the RB16 in fantasy points per game, averaging 17.7 touches and 98.2 total yards. Hall is still one of the best runners in the NFL. Among 64 qualifying backs, Hall is second in explosive run rate and 16th in missed tackle rate. This week, I don't see him finding much running room, though. Since Week 6, New England has remained a top-shelf run defense, allowing the fewest rushing yards per game, the eighth-lowest yards after contact per attempt, and logging the 11th-best stuff rate. The Patriots should load up to stop the run and force Justin Fields to beat them.
