Rex Burkhead Registers 54 Total Yards
4 years agoNew England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead carried the ball six times for 48 yards and added one catch for six yards in the Patriots loss in Week 17 to the Dolphins. Burkhead continues to produce when his name is called upon, popping off an average of eight yards per rush. The Patriots passing game has flat-lined over the past few weeks and it has opened up more chances for the backfield trio of Sony Michel, James White and Burkhead. The veteran back's touches typically are capped when Michel is healthy but Burkhead will play an important role in the Patriots upcoming playoff run.
