Sony Michel Fantasy

New England Patriots running back Sony Michel will try and build off of his 85-yard, one-touchdown performance last week when the team takes on the Jets this Sunday. After a disappointing game to start the season, the second-year running back bounced back nicely. Michel ran hard as the Patriots racked up a sizeable lead. The Patriots backfield consists of Rex Burkhead, James White and Damien Harris but Michel led the way last week with 21 carries. The Jets are down to their third-string quarterback and the Patriots could lean heavily on the running game in Week 3. Michel has RB2 value with a high ceiling this week.

New England Patriots running back Sony Michel carried the ball 21 times for 85 yards and one touchdown in the Patriots 43-0 win over the Dolphins in Week 2. After posting only 14 yards in Week 1, Michel was heavily involved in the offense and ran with conviction. The second-year running back saw plenty of red zone touches and converted on a 1-yard run for his first touchdown of the season. The Patriots backfield is crowded but Michel is the leader among that group.

New England Patriots running back Sony Michel will be looking to bounce back after totaling only 14 yards on 15 carries in the Patriots Week 1 win over the Steelers. Michel was out-shined in the game by a productive effort from Rex Burkhead but few doubt Michel is the most talented runner. The second-year running back will go up against a Dolphins Defense that allowed a combined 34.9 fantasy points to Ravens running backs in Week 1. If the Patriots jump out to an early lead, Michel could see plenty of touches in the second half. Michel is certainly in the RB2 conversation this week and has a chance at posting RB1 numbers.
