Sony Michel Impressing Catching The Ball
5 years agoNew England Patriots running back Sony Michel has been quickly improving as a pass catcher out of the backfield during practices. He struggled during his rookie season with the route tree, but he has reportedly been "beating man coverage" while "finding soft spots in zones", turning heads with his hands during the early portion of training camp. It's a great sign for those in early fantasy drafts, as he is still in that low-RB2 neighborhood at the moment. He could quickly emerge as a top RB2 or flex fantasy option in rather short order if his ascension in the pass game continues.
