Rex Burkhead Deserves Fantasy Roster Spot
6 years agoNew England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead is ready to return to the lineup in Week 13 against the Vikings. Burkhead was placed on injured reserve after hurting his neck in Week 3 against the Lions. Burkhead is a smart football player who is a threat in the passing game of the Patriots red zone offense. His return certainly could effect the fantasy value of veteran James White moving forward but don't expect Burkhead to post fantasy numbers overnight. Burkhead could be brought along slowly and will have a tough first test against a stout Vikings defense. Burkhead is worth a roster spot in most fantasy formats but should not be in lineups for Week 13.
