James White Again Should Be Active On Thursday
6 years agoNew England Patriots running back James White is off to a fantastic start to his season, totaling 303 yards from scrimmage with 22 receptions and four total touchdowns through four games. White does not see many carries from the backfield but has been a favorite target of quarterback Tom Brady. He ostensibly has replaced what Dion Lewis provided for the offense in 2017 and White will go up against a Colts defense that has allowed the seventh most fantasy points to opposing backs. The Colts have especially been burned by smaller, shifty running backs who can catch the ball in the passing game. The return of receiver Julian Edelman could steal some targets but White is still a safe play, especially in PPR-formats, for Week 5.
