Rex Burkhead Hopes To Get Back In The Mix
5 years agoNew England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead (foot) will have a welcoming matchup against the Redskins in Week 5. Burkhead has posted 229 total yards from scrimmage through his first three games this season but was barely used last week against the Bills. The team could lean heavily on the run game if they get out to a big lead early but Burkhead will have to compete with James White and Sony Michel for touches. Burkhead's versatility as a pass-catcher keeps him in the mix but the foot injury could be hampering him from going full speed. Burkhead will have low-end RB4 appeal only in deep formats for Week 5.
