Rex Burkhead A Touchdown-Dependent Bench Asset
5 years agoNew England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead is enjoying one the healthiest preseasons of his career with two exhibition games to go. This time last season, Burkhead was dealing with a scary neck issue that limited him to only eight games last season. Burkhead surprised many by scoring eight total touchdowns in 2017, but he scored only one touchdown last season. The veteran can be a threat in the passing game, racking up 44 receptions for 385 yards in two seasons since joining the Patriots. If healthy, Burkhead could help fantasy teams as a matchup-based FLEX option at some point this season. But he should not be drafted in most fantasy formats in upcoming drafts.
