Rex Burkhead Back At Practice Sunday
6 years agoNew England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead (knee) was in attendance for practice Sunday. Burkhead has been dealing with a minor tear in his knee. The injury is something he can play through, but the Patriots have been cautious with him due to his history with injuries. As long as he’s healthy, Burkhead should be the main back in a backfield that is already crowded. The Patriots may elect to sit him in the third preseason game to make sure he is back to full health by Week 1. James White should see the bulk of the carries while Burkhead and rookie Sony Michel, who was still absent from practice, are out.
